I must not fail to comment on the flagrant disobedience to the orders of injunction of the lower Courts by the Appellants in this appeal When parties submit themselves to the authority of the Courts, they are bound to obey the orders or injunctions that ordinarily flow from the Courts, whether such orders are in their favour or against them Some Political Parties in this Country have consistently made a Mockery ar Caricature of orders of Courts which do not go in their favour.
They did not stop there, they shamelessly, brazenly, and desperately embarked on forum shopping. The Party Convention of the 1st Appellant (PDP) in this Appeal which held on the 15 and 16 of November 2025 is a typical example.
Not only did they flagrantly disobey the orders of the Federal High Court in Suit Number FHC/ABJ/CS2120/2025 by Omotosho, they proceeded to taunt the Court by going to a High Court in Oyo State which is clearly a Court of Coordinate jurisdiction to get a Counter order in their favour. 
This is nothing but MADNESS, GROSS IRESPONSBILITY (emphasis mine), quite contemptuous and clearly making a Mockery of a very serious business. I condemn it in very strong terms. *The said Convention which is a product of this MADNESS and IRESPONSIBILITY is accordingly declared null and void and of no effect whatsoever. All the decisions arrived at by this full-blown Madness are also set aside.*
I also condemn the unethical conduct of some Judges who make their Courts available for forum shopping not due to poor knowledge of the law, but deliberate mischief, thereby diminishing the Majesty of the Courts and the entire Judiciary. They are simply playing with fire with all the attendant consequences.
It is trite that a party in contempt of the order of any Court whatsoever has no reason or justification to seek audience before another Court and no Court should grant such an irresponsible party audience for any reason at all.
Some lawyers, including very Senior Lawyers who appear for these litigants and Political Parties have also not lived up to expectation in this very important aspect of their duty to their clients and to the Courts. This unprofessional conduct
by some lawyers is regrettable. If this gross irresponsibility continues, we will obviously be heading towards dooms day.
On our part as a Policy Court and the Apex Court in the Country, we will not fold our hands in our efforts to preserve the integrity of our Judicial System. We must take steps to visit such recklessness with the law as well as stop granting such recalcitrant parties audience in our Court.
