An Appeal Court sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State has fixed Thursday, October 28, to hear and determine an appeal filed by Prince Uche Secondus, suspended former National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party.

Secondus in the appeal is asking the court to restrain the PDP from conducting its National Convention slated for October 30 and 31, 2021.

Secondus through his counsel, Tayo Oyetibo is asking the court to suspend the convention, arguing that the manner of his client’s removal from office is a violation of the party’s constitution.

When the matter was mentioned in court, six other members of the PDP drew the attention of the court on their application for joinder which was not opposed by counsel to Secondus.

While speaking on Inspiration FM, All Out Politics, a member of the PDP, Ilemona Onoja believes the party is going into the convention as one united big family.
