An Abuja Federal High Court on
Friday ordered the All Progressives Congress, APC, to halt activities over the
adoption of indirect primaries to elect its candidate for the November
governorship election in Kogi State.
The Justice Taiwo Taiwo-led court
ordered parties in the suit challenging the planned adoption of the indirect
primary mode by the Kogi State chapter of APC, not to take any step that could
affect the subject of the case pending its final determination.
He gave the order while ruling on
an ex-parte motion instituted by some members of the Haddy Ametuo-led faction
of the party.
The plaintiffs had, in their
ex-parte motion, prayed the court for “an order of interim injunction,
restraining the defendant by itself, its organs, agents or any person as so
ever described, from adopting the indirect mode of primaries for the nomination
of the governorship candidate in the forthcoming governorship primaries of 2019
in Kogi, pending the determination of the motion on notice.”
