A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has asked parties in a suit filed by four aggrieved members of the Kogi State executive committee of the All Progressive Congress, APC to maintain status quo.
The aggrieved members are seeking for an order of court to restrain the party from adopting the Indirect Voting mode in selecting its candidate for the forthcoming governorship election.
The court ruled that pending the hearing and determination of the suit on August 19th 2019, the parties should maintain status quo.
Justice Taiwo Taiwo sitting as the vacation judge in his ruling on Friday held that in view of the urgency of the matter it will be better to give accelerate hearing to the main suit rather than grant the interim injunction been sort.
He also says he will abridge the time for hearing to enable the court to hear it and deliver it to position.
He
therefore ordered that nothing must be done until the hearing and dispensation
of the main suit on August 19, 2019.
