The federal high court in Abuja rejected Senator Samuel Anyanwu’s request to block the Independent National Election Commission (INEC) in order to make him the People’s Democratic State Secretary (PDP).
Instead, Justice Inyang Edem Ekwo ordered Anyanwu to notify INEC and other defendants to appear in court and raise aspects of the case.
