Obanikoro Takes His Party (PDP) To Court by Nobody: 10:18am On Dec 14, 2014 |
The dust over the conduct of the Lagos State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) primary held on Monday has not settled. One of the aspirants in the Lagos PDP race and a former Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro, has taken the party to the Federal High Court. Obanikoro, on Saturday, told journalists and party supporters at his Lagos campaign office that the primary was a sham. He said that he would not allow the result to stand. He described it as injustice because he feels the process was not free and fair. “The 48 hours timeline stipulated by the PDP Electoral Guideline to address our appeal has elapsed without a response from the party. “In the light of this development, we have proceeded to the Federal High Court, Abuja, to seek redress over the outcome of last Monday’s PDP primaries. “I urge all our teeming supporters to remain steadfast. We will pursue this to a logical conclusion and justice will be done,” he said. Obanikoro added, however, that his fight was not about his personal ambition alone but also for the sake of the people of Lagos State. “I stand for a greater Lagos. Anything that will derail that greater Lagos, we will fight it. What we are saying is very clear. We are saying that in our party, power belongs to the people. This fight is not about me. It is about the soul of our party,” Obanikoro stated. source: http://www.channelstv.com/2014/12/14/lagos-pdp-primaries-obanikoro-sues-party/?utm_source=&utm_medium=twitter |

Anti-party for trying to get justice? I dont know that taking people who accredited 806 delegates and returned 867 vote cast is anti-party. Bull.sh.it otokx: 1 Like |
