A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) led by Kabiru Turaki has rejected the Court of Appeal ruling that voided the partyโs national convention held in Ibadan in November 2025.
The group said it will challenge the judgment at the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
The faction described the appellate courtโs decision as harmful to members nationwide.
In a statement, spokesperson Ini Ememobong confirmed that lawyers have been instructed to begin the appeal process immediately.
The Court of Appeal nullified the convention held on November 15 and 16, 2025, in Ibadan, Oyo State. The ruling has deepened internal divisions within the opposition party.
Appeal Court to Supreme Court
Ememobong warned that enforcing the judgment without review could cause serious problems for members.
He said, โThe operationalisation of this judgment will, without fail, impose untold hardship on our members.โ
He explained that while consultations continue with party organs, the faction has directed its legal team to approach the Supreme Court for a final determination.
He expressed confidence that the apex court will deliver a clear and timely verdict to settle the dispute.
Ememobong also appealed to members to remain calm and united during the legal process. He said the PDP must be rescued โfrom the hands of those masquerading as opposition leaders.โ
He assured supporters that the faction remains committed to protecting the partyโs structure and restoring stability.
