The Sout-West zone of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has canceled the zonal congress of the party.
The zonal congress which was originally scheduled for Saturday, May 14, was canceled due to the order by Justice Ibrahim Buba , which restrained the party from going ahead with its zonal congress
According to The Punch, the national leadership of the party said that it was recalling its officers already sent to Akure, the Ondo state capital, where the congress was originally scheduled to hold.
Prof. Wale Oladipo, the national secretary of the party, said the decision to stop the congress was because of the order by Justice Ibrahim Buba of a Federal High Court in Lagos, which restrained the party from going ahead with its zonal congress.
Another faction of the party had also planned to hold a separate zonal congress in Ijebu Igbo, Ogun state.
