Umar Ganduje
The Federal High Court, Abuja, has dismissed a suit to remove Abdullahi Ganduje as the All Progressives Congress’s National Chairman.
In a judgment on Monday morning, Justice Inyang Ekwo held that the suit by a group—the APC North Central Group—was premature and related to an issue that is within the international affairs of the political party.
Justice Ekwo also held that the plaintiff is not a juristic person having not been registered in law and therefore has no legal power or capacity to file the suit.
The judge equally also held that the APC North Central Group failed to explore the internal mechanism for peaceful resolution of issues before approaching the court.
Justice Ekwo was of the view that the appointment of officers of the APC by its National Executive Committee (NEC) is an internal affair of the party which no court can dabble into.
The plaintiff had filed the suit, marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/599/2024, to seek amicable others, an order voiding Ganduje’s appointment by the Chairman of the APC, claiming that the appointment violated the party’s Constitution.
The plaintiff contended that since the party’s chairmanship position was zoned to the North central, a replacement for the immediate past chairman of the APC ought to also be appointed from the North central.
