A court in Port Harcourt has void primaries conducted by both factions of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state.

The Federal High court also restrained the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from presenting Tonye Cole and Magnus Abe as candidates of the party in the 2019 elections in the state.

Justice James Omotosho said none of the primaries were conducted according to the law.

Also, the judge said INEC did not do well by submitting names of candidates without consideration of previous court orders.
