A Federal High Court in Lagos has declared as illegal the caretaker committee constituted on Saturday by the Peoples Democratic Party at its controversial National Convention in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
Headed by a former Governor of Kaduna State, Senator Ahmed Makarfi, the caretaker committee is to take over the affairs of the party from the National Working Committee headed by the Acting National Chairman, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff.
But on Tuesday, Justice Ibrahim Buba declared the caretaker committee illegal.
Buba further directed the Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase, to enforce the order.
