The Delta State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Peter Mrakpor, has stepped forward to dismiss “claims that there is a court injunction restraining the party from holding its national convention scheduled for March 29–30, 2026, in Abuja are false and misleading.”
Mrakpor, who holds the prestigious rank of “Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), made this clarification amid growing speculation and circulating rumours suggesting that the convention may be stalled by legal challenges.” According to his statement, “the party is fully prepared to proceed as planned without any legal hindrance,” and he further noted that “all necessary arrangements for the convention remain intact.”
Taking a firm stance against the narrative of a delay, “the Delta PDP chairman urged all delegates from the state to disregard what he termed “rumour mongers” and ensure their full participation at the convention in Abuja.” He went on to describe “those spreading misinformation as enemies of the party, whose aim is to create confusion and undermine the PDP’s internal processes.”
In closing, “Mrakpor reaffirmed the party’s commitment to a successful and hitch-free convention,” and categorically stated “that there is no court order stopping the exercise.”
“Our convention will hold as scheduled. There is no court injunction. The claims are false and misleading,” Mrakpor assured.
