The Court of Appeal in Ibadan on Wednesday adjourned indefinitely the case challenging the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) elective convention in the city.
In its ruling, the court gave the disputing parties the option to resolve the matter amicably outside the courtroom. It further stated that if the parties fail to reach a settlement, they may return to court for continuation of proceedings.
The panel of justices advised legal representatives to guide their clients carefully to promote a peaceful resolution and avoid further legal entanglements.
They also urged lawyers to be conscious of time, particularly in light of the recently released electoral timetable by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
