The Jubilation in the camp of Ali Modu Sheriff was shortlived as a Federal High Court in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, granted an interim injunction restraining him from parading himself, as the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The court also barred Adewale Oladipo from parading himself, as the national secretary.
The two politicians were sacked from office at the PDP national convention held on Saturday.
But, a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos reinstated Sheriff, and removed Ahmed Makarfi, who was appointed as chairman of the party’s caretaker committee on Tuesday.
Justice Ibrahim Buba restrained all members of the PDP’s National Working Committee from receiving nominations or submitting names of officers to the electoral body, INEC, pending the hearing and determination of the motion brought by the party.
