Recalls that Apapa had expressed his intention to attend the Tribunal on Friday, May 19 (today), during an appearance on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily program.
When asked about his plans following his rejection on Wednesday, he confidently affirmed, “I intend to go. Maybe by the next hearing, I will be recognised.”
Apapa further asserted that his presence at the Tribunal on Wednesday was aimed at asserting his authority as the acting National Chairman of the party.

Recall that the leadership dispute escalated after a court order restrained Julius Abure, the incumbent National Chairman, and other party executives from assuming leadership roles. While Apapa claims his rightful position as the chairman, a significant portion of party members do not recognise his authority.
