PDP appeals court verdict ordering fresh primaries

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti State has appealed a Federal High Court judgment that nullified its 2025 governorship primary which had produced Dr. Wole Oluyede as its candidate for the June 20, 2026 election. The party filed a notice of appeal and application for a stay of execution at the Court of Appeal, meaning the status quo (Oluyede as candidate) remains for now while the appeal is pending.
