Court nulifies Ogun PDP governorship primaries

A Federal High Court sitting in Abeokuta, the state capital, on Tuesday nullified the governorship primaries of the Ogun chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

Ogun PDP held three parallel primaries with one producing Hon. Ladi Adebutu as governorship candidate.

Justice Oguntoyinbo, after nullifying the primaries, ordered a fresh exercise within a reasonable time to accommodate all interests and groups.

The suit was filed by Prince Adesegun Seriki and three others against Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the PDP.

Prince Seriki and his Co – plaintiffs sought the Court’s explicit order to enforce their rights as the rightful and legitimate PDP candidates for the 2023 general elections in Ogun State.
