The Ahmed Makarfi led PDP faction says the party convention will hold in spite of the Abuja high court injunction.
The party’s stance contained in a press release published by a member of the National Caretaker Committee For Publicity, Dayo Adeyeye.
The faction says the suspension of the convention by Justice Okon of the Abuja high court is an act of judicial recklessness. And it will go by the Interlocutory Order given by the Rivers State high court.
“The Order of Port Harcourt is clearly superior and earlier in time to the Interim Order given by Justice Okon Abang. In the light of the above, The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a law abiding Party is obeying the Order of the Port Harcourt, Federal High Court until set aside by any competent Court of jurisdiction.” The statement reads.
The party says its Repeat National Convention will continue as scheduled on Wednesday 17th August 2016.

Sound Sultan drops the visuals to his new single less than two days after the song hit the airwaves.
In the song Sultan Sultan sings the praises of his love interest, the African Lady.
Produced by TyMix, the song has an eastern flavour (pun intended). And the featured artist are a perfect fit on the song.
This reminds me of Sultan’s last collaboration with Flavour on the song “Orobo”.
Watch the video below.

Congregates of Mount Zion General Assembly went home with heads down on Sunday after a failed demonstration of power by the church pastor when a girl fainted after he put a very big and heavy speaker on top of her, promising her that she would not feel pain. The woman has now died from internal injuries caused to her lungs.
Pastor Lethebo Rabalango had organised a night of worship at his church in Polokwane where he was teaching about demonstration of power in which he emphasised that if Jesus walked on water, he too could do anything with faith.
It is on this point that he invited a girl from the praise team and asked her to lie down. He then ordered Ushers to carry a big speaker and put on her stomach saying the weight would not harm her. As if it was not enough, he climbed on top of the speaker, adding pressure to suffocate the girl who remained quite for she had already passed out.
After seating on top of the speaker which was still on the girl’s stomach for close 5 minutes, he got up and ordered removal of the speaker, but the girl could not rise because she had fainted.
It took some elders giving her first aid treatment that she came back but complained of a broken rib. The she was then taken to hospital.
However, the pastor blamed the girl and accused her of having little faith for she could not withstand a very simple task. Pastor Lethabo can be accessed via his facebook Account.
