Court restrains Buni, others from parading as APC national committee

Justice Marshal Umukoro of an Asaba High Court has restrained Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, and other members from parading themselves as members of the All Progressives Congress National Caretaker Committee until the determination of the suit before the court.Deputy Chairman of APC, Olorogun Elvis Ayomanor, who led other officials of the Delta APC, had approached the court following the July 10, 2021 ward congress, which was allegedly hijacked.

In the ex-parte motion filed by the applicants, lead counsel, Ebipade Richard, prayed the court to grant the seven-point reliefs sought, adding that continuing with the Saturday, September 4 congress in Delta State, would cause more damage to his clients. Principal among the reliefs sought by the Claimants/Applicants was an order of interim injunction of this court restraining the second and 14th defendant from further acting or parading themselves as the members of the Caretaker/ Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee of the 1st Defendant pending the hearing and determination of the Motion on Notice already filed and served in the suit.

But Richard mentioned the fact that the matter before the court was an ex-parte motion that did not require the parties’ consideration.
