“As at today, the party has not yet taken a position on the ruling.
“We have a legal department and they will look into it and do what is right on it.
“The party will come out clearly on its position after studying the judgment.”
On Imo State, Issa-Onilu said the party still has till November 2 to submit the list of candidates to the Independent National Electoral Commission.
