Former Jigawa State Governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido, has debunked a circulating report claiming he has withdrawn his case against the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and given the party the go-ahead to proceed with its planned national convention in Ibadan.
Lamido made the clarification in a statement posted on his official Facebook page on Friday evening, describing the report as “FAKE NEWS.”
According to him, he began receiving several calls from PDP members across the country after the false story began spreading at the proposed convention venue in Ibadan.
“I urge members to note that the story attributed to me is false. The Federal High Court today, at about 2:30 p.m., delivered a judgment affirming my right to contest the Chairmanship of the PDP, which was earlier denied me,” Lamido stated.
He further explained that the court also issued an order halting the Ibadan convention scheduled for 15th and 16th November 2025 until the PDP complies with the ruling, as well as restraining INEC from supervising or observing the event.
“Certified order stopping the Ibadan Convention has already been delivered to INEC and the PDP,” he added.
The former governor urged the public to disregard the rumour suggesting he had asked his lawyers to withdraw the case following a meeting with Oyo State Governor, Engr. Seyi Makinde.
He condemned the report as malicious and misleading, reiterating that he remains committed to pursuing his legal rights within the party.
