The Supreme Court has nullified the national convention of the Peoples Democratic Party held in Ibadan, Oyo State, on November 15 and 16, 2025.
In a split judgment delivered on Thursday, three of the five justices of the apex court ruled that the appeal brought before it by the faction led by Tanimu Turaki lacked merit.

Delivering the lead majority judgment, Justice Stephen Adah held that the appellants acted in violation of a subsisting order of the Federal High Court which restrained them from proceeding with the planned convention.
The court consequently invalidated the convention conducted in Ibadan.
