Peter Obi Media Reach (POMR) on Friday, June 26, 2026, urged calm after a High Court in Lokoja issued a surprising ruling on the legal status of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), describing the decision as a temporary detour in a larger struggle.
In a press release signed by spokesperson Idris Zekeri Jnr., POMR said its legal team is already reviewing the judgment and preparing immediate corrective and appellate actions, while calling on supporters, coalition partners and patriots nationwide to remain “absolutely calm and focused.”
The statement framed the ruling as predictable resistance from an entrenched political status quo that the movement is determined to dismantle, and reiterated confidence that the destination - a “New Nigeria” - remains certain.
Below are POMR initial responses to inquiries pending legal views on the development
“Peter Obi Media Reach (POMR) has been bombarded with calls from the newsrooms and other concerned persons on the strange court ruling from a High Court in Lokoja, Kogi State.
"We have received the news of today’s bizarre ruling from the court in Lokoja regarding the legal status of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC). While our legal teams are thoroughly reviewing the judgment to initiate immediate corrective and appellate measures, our principal urges all our supporters, coalition partners, and patriots nationwide to remain absolutely calm and focused.
“We always knew that the journey to dismantle a deeply entrenched and grossly underperforming political status-quo would be met with fierce institutional resistance and unexpected legal detours.
“Today’s ruling is a hurdle, not a stop sign. Our commitment to providing a transparent, legitimate, and formidable alternative for Nigerians remains unshakeable. The platform we are building is robust, and our legal rights will be vigorously pursued. Do not be discouraged; the vehicle may face a temporary breakdown, but our destination remains non-negotiable."
