A Federal High Court sitting in Kano State on Thursday set aside the
ruling suspending Adams Oshiomhole as National Chairman of the All
Progressives Congress, APC.
Recall that a Federal Capital Territory, FCT, High Court had
yesterday ordered Oshiomhole to stop parading himself as National
Chairman of the ruling party.
Justices Danlami Senchi had ruled that the APC National Chairman
should step down pending the determination of a suit seeking his removal
from office.
The judge had ruled on an application of an interlocutory injunction following his suspension as a member of the APC from Etsako ward 10 in Edo State.
Oshiomhole, however, appealed the ruling before Justice Lewis Allagoa-led court.
Justice Allagoa, while hearing the matter set aside the ruling of the FCT High Court which suspended Oshiomhole.
The judge also ordered security agencies like the police, the
Department of State Service, DSS, to provide security for Oshiomhole as
he resumes office.
Earlier, a highly placed source in APC had disclosed that Oshiomhole will remain as National Chairman pending the determination of his case.
