Political observers say the appeal court’s decision could have significant implications for the leadership direction of the party, which has experienced internal disagreements in recent months.
The PDP governors expressed confidence that the court would deliver a fair judgment and urged all stakeholders within the party to accept the outcome in good faith in order to preserve stability within the organization.
