The Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress said it had cancelled the ward congress earlier slated for today the 17^th

of September.

 It also cancelled the local government and state congresses which was scheduled to take place on the 21^st and 28^th of September.

 The State Publicity Secretary of the APC, CHRIS FINEBONE said the congresses were put on hold as a result of the court order that restrained the party from holding the exercise.

 Recall that a Rivers State High Court had on Thursday last week ordered the party to refrain from conducting its ward, local and state congresses, pending the hearing and determination of a suit filed by IBRAHIM UMAH and 22 others.

 The interim injunction also ordered the state chapter of the APC and the claimants in the suit to maintain the status quo pending the determination of the matter before the court.
