PDP Accuses Judge of Bias in Legal Battle Over Convention Outcomes

The legal battle between factions led by Wike and Turaki within the PDP intensified in the Federal High Court in Abuja. The Turaki faction filed a motion requesting Justice Abdulmalik to recuse herself due to perceived bias.

The judge adjourned the case related to nullifying the convention outcomes until January 2026. The motion highlighted concerns over fairness and impartiality.

The judge had previously issued an ex parte order against Wike's faction. The court held that the recusal motion was premature, leading to an adjournment for further proceedings.
