Ayu Withdraws
Case Against PDP.
Former National Chairman of the People’s Democratic
Party, Dr. Iyiorchia Ayu, has withdrawn the court action he instituted against
the party over his controversial removal from office barely two years into his
four year term.
His action has removed legal impediments likely to
militate against the emergence of his replacement from the North Central.
The lawsuit is believed to have impeded the PDP from
having a substantive National Chairman since 2023 when a High Court sitting in
Makurdi, the capital of Benue State, stopped Ayu from parading himself as the
party’s leader.
In a notice of withdrawal of appeal made available to
newsmen on Wednesday, the Court of Appeal of Nigeria revealed that Ayu has
withdrawn the appeal against the respondents filed on the 27th day of June 2023
via Notice of Appeal dated the 26th day of June 2023.
