THE Appeal Court in Abuja has ruled in favor of a factional Governorship candidate of the People’s Democratic Party in Ogun State, Otunba Segun Showunmi, in a case between him, the People’s Democratic Party, and two others.
According to the lawyers on the case, the implication of the ruling in the suit filed by Showunmi against the party, Ladi Adebutu, and co, is that Showunmi remains the candidate of the main opposition party in Ogun State unless otherwise ruled.
The Appellant, Otunba Segun Sowunmi, had complained to the lower court that the Ogun State Exco of the party, acted in bias when they allegedly purchased nomination and interest forms for Adebutu, the 3rd respondent, without doing same for the other candidates, who purchased the forms legally, including himself.
