The court’s order, issued on Tuesday, July 16, 2024, specifically bars the PDP, its National Chairman, National Financial Secretary, National Organizing Secretary, and their agents from conducting any congress in Rivers State until further notice.

The injunction was granted pending the hearing and determination of a suit filed before the court.
