Drama as police seals off venue for PDP convention in Port Harcourt

PDP Convention


It has been confirmed by the Force Public Relations Officer, Mr. Donald Awunah that the venue slated to host the national convention of the Peoples Democratic Party has been sealed off. This confirmation was made during Channels Television breakfast programme ‘ Sunrise Daily’ where he stressed that: “The warring parties need to follow due process to end their crisis through the courts and as a law enforcement agency what do you do? You ensure that there is a superior court order. It is not about taking sides.

“If in the next one hour or two, we get another court order, we will take action. We are there for every Nigerian but when you are the first responder, you have to take action, you have to be proactive.”
However a source who is a member of the party said, although the venue was sealed, those with tags were allowed into the premises as at 8: 45am.

“It was sealed, but as we speak, some people with tags are allowed into the premises. I am trying to find my way in now, will get back to you.”


Nigerians from all walks of life have been accusing the judiciary for the worsening legal and leadership crises in the party, with too many conflicting judgments from different courts.
