The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has received a stay of execution order on the Court of Appeal judgment removing Senator Samuel Anyanwu as the party’s national secretary, the party’s deputy national publicity secretary, Ibrahim Abdullahi siad on Friday.

Following the receipt he said that the party as a law obeying institution would obey it and continue to regard Samuel Anyanwu as its National Secretary.

GWG.ng reports that Abdullahi spoke at a press conference on Friday.

He said, “In the last few days, issues surrounding the authentic National Secretary of our party have been in the front bunner of our discussion.

“On Wednesday, January 15, we were served with an order of interim injunction issued by the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory(FCT) Maitama, in a suit instituted by the Imo State PDP Chairman, Austine Nwachukwu, through his counsel, Clement Mue, in a Suit marked: CV/64/2025.”

According to Abdullahi, the stay of execution order restrained the party and its agents from giving effect to the Appeal Court order recognizing Ude Okoye as National Secretary.

Abdullahi further said, “We are obliged as a law-abiding party, to respect the order of the court and also send a legal representation to defend the party in the suit when the Motion on Notice comes up on January 8, and February 5, for hearing on the originating summons.

“We hereby appeal to all PDP members to be restrained and law-abiding in waiting for the final position of the court on this matter.

“With several precedences serving as references, we ought to be guided as a party not to fall prey to the antics of our political traducers in and outside of the PDP by playing to the gallery on matters of law and constitutionality.

“Regardless of this outcome and the feathers ruffled as a result, let us as a party rededicate ourselves to the sacred duty of constitutionalism and adherence to the rule of law.

“Our responsibility as the major opposition party in the land must not be lost on the altar of mere leadership tussle, especially where we are so guided by the extant provisions of our own laws.

“We must regulate our conduct to conform with civilised practices to avert ‘trowing away the baby with the bath water’.”
