Ruling on a motion ex parte argued by Christopher Okonkwo, counsel to the applicants, the court ordered the defendants to stop parading themselves as the national executive committee of the Accord Party pending the determination of the substantive suit before the court.

Listed as defendants in the suit are Mgbudem, INEC, the Inspector General of Police, Department of State Services (DSS) and 10 others.
Hearing has been fixed for September 2, 2024.
