Embattled National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Prince Uche Secondus has waved off the press statement on a Court Order sacking him circulated by the Special Adviser on Media to Rivers state Governor Nyesom Wike.
The SA had announced that the High Court of Rivers State has issued an interim injunction restraining, Prince Uche Secondus from parading himself as the national chairman and member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Hon. Justice. O. Gbasam of the Degema Judicial Division vacation court sitting in Port Harcourt granted the order on Monday, following a suit No: PHC/2183/CS/2021 filed by Ibeawuchi Ernest Alex, Dennis Nna Amadi, Emmanuel Stephen and Umezirike Onucha against Uche Secondus (1st defendant) and the PDP (2nd defendant).
But in a statement by the media office of the National Chairman signed by Ike Abonyi, the Special Adviser, media, dismissed it.
The statement reads; “Media office of the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has been inundated with calls from media houses on a press statement sent to newsrooms by one Kelvin Ebiri, Special Assistant Media to the Rivers state Governor, Bar Nysom Wike announcing that “Court Restrains Secondus from Parading as National Chairman, Member of PDP”.
“Our reaction- If Secondus and the party are taken to court they will defend themselves”.
“PDP and Secondus are not afraid of court, this party is a child of history, owned by Nigerians, bigger than any individual or group including desperadoes”.
