The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says its team that would monitor the Port Harcourt convention of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is on standby.
Nick Dazang, INEC deputy director on publicity and voter education, said this in a statement on Tuesday.
The statement said the commission had not received the judgement of the federal high court, Abuja, which ordered the cessation of the exercise, but said INEC had received the judgement of Port Harcourt.
“Even though the commission has been served the Port Harcourt high court judgment, it is yet to be served the Abuja High Court judgment by Justice Abang,” he said.
“As soon as it (the commission) is served the Abuja high court judgment, it will take a decision. In the meantime, and following the Port Harcourt judgment, our monitoring staff are on standby.”
On Tuesday, two courts gave conflicting orders on the convention, one stopping it and the order endorsing it.
