Meanwhile, the president of NUJ has said the committee dissolved the newly elected leadership of the Ogun State council in line with Article 5, Paragraph 10 of the union’s constitution. He said the decision was aimed at ensuring justice and fairness.
“The election was not just nullified. There were series of petitions and the report of the national officers that supervised the election corroborated the contents of the petitions. In fact, one of the national officers said he was held hostage at the election venue. “A whole chapel – Consolidated Chapel, which has about 35 members was disenfranchised. They wrote their petition too. And we were told the top police official who monitored the election had advised that the process be postponed but they did not heed the advice. So, we are aware of the court action. And I promise that appropriate steps will be taken.”
