The Court of Appeal in Abuja has postponed judgment in an appeal filed by David Mark and Rauf Aregbesola against a Federal High Court judgment restraining them from dissolving the State Working Committees (SWCs) of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
The appellate court had been scheduled to deliver judgment on Wednesday but deferred the ruling to July 13 without providing reasons for the postponement.
The development came after lawyers, political actors and journalists had waited for more than two hours for the court to commence proceedings.
A registrar of the court later announced that the judgment would now be delivered on Monday, July 13, in the afternoon.
The appeal was filed by the ADC, Mark and Aregbesola to challenge the decision of Justice Joyce Abdulmalik of the Federal High Court, Abuja, which halted moves to terminate the four-year tenure of the party’s state officers.
