Supreme Court Releases Verdict On PDP Convention
The Supreme Court of Nigeria has nullified the national convention of the Peoples Democratic Party held in Ibadan on November 15 and 16, 2025.
The ruling overturns decisions taken at the gathering.
The apex court declared the convention invalid, effectively undoing outcomes linked to leadership and party structure from the event.
The judgment follows legal disputes over the conduct and legitimacy of the convention.
The decision is expected to deepen the internal crisis within the PDP as factions battle for control of the party ahead of the 2027 elections.
It also raises fresh uncertainty over recognised leadership positions.
Political observers say the ruling could reshape opposition dynamics, with implications for alliances and preparations for upcoming electoral contests.
