According to reports, Iroegbu made the statement in response to the Appeal Court’s decision regarding the PDP National Convention that took place in Ibadan, Oyo State, in November of last year.
On Monday, the Appeal Court in Abuja rejected the appeal filed by the PDP group led by Taminu Turaki.
Additionally, the Court affirmed the ruling of the Federal High Court in Abuja, which on October 31, 2025, prohibited the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from acknowledging the results of the PDP’s 2025 National Convention.
Iroegbu insisted that the PDP cannot be an extension of the ruling APC when responding to questions on ARISE Television’s “Prime Time” program.
“The PDP will not turn into an APC appendage,” he declared. The head of a PDP faction has declared his support for the APC administration. They ought to move into the APC without hesitation.
“You can support whoever you want, but you can’t be here and there. That’s not a problem.
The problem is that. This kind of political shenanigans has been made possible by our system. That’s depressing.
However, as I mentioned earlier, the ruling today did not support our position, but it also did not uphold the illegality known as the “Caretaker Committee” because you cannot put anything on nothing.
The suspension of the group that established the Caretaker Committee was upheld by the Appeal Court today.
“The Caretaker Committee was established during that period of suspension.
“So, how can anyone claim that you are continuing with your so-called Caretaker Committee after receiving confirmation that their suspension is in effect?”
