A federal high court in Abuja has halted again the People Democratic Party’s planned convention expected to hold in Oyo State between 15th–16th November 2025.

Justice Omotosho, in a ruling, ordered that the embattled political party should postpone its convention pending the conclusion of a suit brought to the court by former governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido. The court also ordered INEC not to participate in any convention of the party.

‘Justice Omotosho J. in the ruling, further directed that the PDP National Convention, earlier scheduled to hold on 15th–16th November 2025 in Ibadan, be postponed to a later date and INEC should not participate in any activities relating to the convention in Ibadan or anywhere in Nigeria pending the court hearings’.

Sule Lamido was accompanied to the court by Senator Mustapha Khabeeb (Zannan Dutse) Alhaji Umaru Mai Shadai, Dr. Babandi Ibrahim, Hon. Nasiru Umar Roni, Hon. Nasir Mohammed Sparrow, Hon. Umar Danjani Hadejia and Hon. Kabiru Nura Kazaure.
