Progressives Congress in Cross River State for the 2019 governorship and National Assembly elections.
Delivering judgments that bordered on who were the authentic candidates of the APC as well as the authentic state executive of the party, the appeal panel declared that Owan-Enoh, Ndoma-Egba and others, whose names were published by the Independent National Electoral Commission , remained the authentic candidates of the party.
The Appeal Court noted that the lower court cannot grant relief, and make orders against persons who were not parties before the court. The justices said that the orders of the Federal High Court, “were made gratuitous, and without fair hearing and against established principles of the law”.
