Recall that the Court of Appeal on Tuesday upheld the suspension of Adams Oshiomhole as the  National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).The affirmation was given by a three-member panel of the appeal court in Abuja.

In a judgment delivered by Justice Mohammed Lamido, the panel dismissed Mr Oshiomhole’s appeal for lacking in merit and accordingly affirmed the judgment of an Abuja high court which had ordered his suspension as APC national chairman in March 2020.

Oshiomhole’s suspension by the APC in Edo State was as a result of his battle with the state governor, Godwin Obaseki.

A Federal High Court also ruled that his suspension was legal and ordered Mr Oshiomhole to stop parading himself as APC national chairman.

The suspension was initially lifted after the appellate court granted a stay of execution of the high court’s order.
