The Supreme Court has struck out all the interlocutory appeals filed
by the Ali Sheriff faction of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP.
Mr. Sheriff insists he is the authentic chairman of the PDP. However,
a Court of Appeal in Abuja on Wednesday declared Ahmed Makarfi the
authentic PDP leader.
A PDP aspirant in Ondo, Jimoh Ibrahim, had hoped that the Supreme
Court would grant the appeals which would have returned him as the
candidate of the party for Saturday’s governorship election.
Mr. Ibrahim was chosen as PDP candidate by the Ali Sheriff faction.
Eyitayo Jegede of the Ahmed Makarfi faction was declared authentic PDP candidate by the Appeal Court on Wednesday.
