The Supreme Court will on Wednesday decide on the leadership tussle between the Ahmed Makarfi and Ali Modu Sheriff factions of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

A five-member panel of Justices, presided by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Walter Onnoghen, had on May 22 reserved judgment on the dispute.

A statement from the Head of the Publicity Division of the party’s Wadata House, Mrs Chinwe Nnorom, on Tuesday confirmed Wednesday as the date notified the parties by apex court.

“Our teeming members and supporters who are willing to attend are hereby encouraged to do in solidarity with the PDP,” she said in the statement. (Daily Trust)
