Court bars Uchendu, Davies from parading selves as Rivers APC leaders

A Rivers State High Court in Port Harcourt has restrained Sen Andrew Uchendu and Sokonte Davies from parading themselves as leaders of Rivers All Progressives Congress.

The court also reaffirmed Igo Aguma, as Caretake Chairman of the party, thereby nullifying a recent displacement by co-statutory members who form the state Caretaker Committee.

Justice M.O. Chukwu in a suit filed by Golden Chioma, a party stalwart, held that the meeting that suspended Aguma from the party was illegal and was in contravention or of the APC constitution.

Sen Uchendu and Davies had convened a meeting of statutory members who suspended Aguma as Caretaker chair weeks after a High Court declared him Caretaker chairman.

Davies later emerged the parallel Chairman at the convened meeting.

Justice George Omereji had last month declared Aguma as Acting Chairman of the APC in Rivers state.

Aguma had returned to court, with backing from Sen Magnus Abe, to seek his reinstatement after his sudden suspension.
