365Daily – The truce declared by rival factions in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) seems to have broken as the faction led by Bauchi Governor, Sen. Bala Mohammed, has filed a suit seeking for an exparte order to hold the party’s National Executive Council (NEC) meeting.

It was gathered that the suit was filed at the Zamfara High Court where Justice Salim Ibrahim is expected to hear the exparte motion in Gusau.

The group wants the order by the Abuja Federal High Court barring the party from removing its acting national chairman, Amb. Umar Damagum.

Some PDP governors led by Mohammed had moved to remove Damagum who took over from Iyorchia Ayu.

However, some stakeholders, especially those loyal to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, opposed the move.
