The leadership crisis rocking Anambra State chapter of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) appears to be over as the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has written to indicate the faction it recognises. The commission’s letter dated October 23, 2014 with reference number INEC/LEG/ LM/ AN/04/V/540 and addressed to the national chairman of the party, said it would only deal with the Ejike Oguebego-led executive committee of the party.
The letter entitled: “Re: Current Status of the Leadership of Peoples Democratic Party in Anambra State,” was signed by the commission’s Secretary, Musa Adamu.
The Oguebego-led executive was believed to be loyal to the Chief Chris Uba faction of PDP in the state.
The letter, which was acknowledged by PDP national secretariat in Abuja on October 30, said the commission was in “receipt of several letters on the leadership of the PDP in Anambra State. Several court orders, rulings and consent judgments in which INEC was not a party were also attached.
“You may wish to note that the commission monitored a state congress of the PDP in the state at which Chief Oguebego was elected as chairman of the party.”
“Further, you may wish to note that the Federal High Court Division in its ruling of September 12, 2013 in Suit No. FHC/ PH/CS/213/13 between Ejike Oguebego and two Ors vs. PDP and three Ors ordered both the PDP and INEC to recognise and deal with the Oguebego-led state executive committee in all elections in Anambra State.’’
