 The party state's local government elections will hold as scheduled on Saturday October night as just appellate court dismissed people's democratic party's application for an injunction to stop the election. PDP, through its council, had fired a motion before the appellate court seeking for an injunction to stop party state independent electoral commission from conducting the local government polls pending the determination of its appeal against a high court judgment that excludes the party from participating in the election. Late judge of the court of appeal, COA Justice Mudashiru Oniyangi, dismissed PDP's application on the ground that he failed woefully due to lack of diligent prosecution. The judge then adjourned the case to November 22 for hearing. In his motion of preliminary objection, Council to Plastic Garba Pool described the application as incompetent and contrary to Section 7, subsection 1 of the constitution of Nigeria. Speaking to journalists shortly after the ruling, Pwajok pleaded with the people of Plateau to be patient and participate in the election in a very peaceful and orderly manner for it to be successful.
