The Court of Appeal, Abuja will any moment deliver judgement in the appeal filed by the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomhole against his suspension by the Edo State Chapter of the party.
A 3-man panel of the appellate court led by Eunice Onyemenam resolved to deliver judgement after taking argument from parties involved in the matter.
The appellant, Oshiomhole and APC are challenging an order of the Federal Capital Territory High Court which in March restrained Oshiomhole from parading himself as the National Chairman of the party.
They are also challenging the jurisdiction of the High Court on the grounds that the suspension of Oshiomhole was carried out in Edo State and not in the FCT.

The lead counsel for the appellant, Damian Dodo and Ahmed Raji are praying the Appeal Court to void and set aside the decision of the lower court as it relates to the suspension.
