A Federal High Court sitting in Ibadan and presided over by Justice Uche Nma Agomoh, Wednesday, dismissed a suit filed by the All Progressives Congress and three others seeking the order of the court to disqualify Mr. Adesoji Adedeji from participating in the February 25 election.
The plaintiffs then asked the court for an order to compel the Independent National Electoral Commission to bar Adedeji from participating in Saturday’s election, having been purportedly nominated by the two parties. The presiding judge also awarded a total cost of N100,000 against APC to be paid N50,000 each to Adedeji’s counsel, Sunday Aborisade, and the lawyer for Labour Party, Kehinde Yekini.
