The All Progressives Congress, APC, says it is not bound by the Rivers High Court judgment that reinstated its dissolved Chief Emeke Beke-led State Executive Committee, as it was not a party to the suit.
This is contained in a statement by the Deputy National Secretary of the party, Mr Festus Fuanter, on Thursday in Abuja, after the National Working Committee, NWC , closed-door meeting. Recall that the Rivers High Court had dismissed the Tony Okocha-led Caretaker Committee and reinstated the dissolved Beke-led executive.
You cannot sue an agent of a disclosed principal. “Furthermore, there is a valid and subsisting court judgment against Chief Emeka Beke and Iheanyichukwu Azubuike, former Rivers APC Chairman and Legal Adviser, respectively, wherein they were removed from office,” he explained. Fuanter further stated that a court judgment or order was not binding on a person or organization that was not a party to the suit.
