Ondo: Mimiko meets Buhari, says ‘Am shocked, INEC’s decision capable of setting state on fire

Ondo State Governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, on Friday met behind closed doors with President Muhammadu Buhari over the political development in the state that saw the Independent National Electoral Commission recognising Mr. Jimoh Ibrahim as the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the forthcoming governorship election.

Mimiko who spoke with State House correspondents
afterwards said that he decided to visit the Presidential Villa, Abuja to intimate the President of the imminent danger in the decision which he described as injustice to the people of the state.

The governor admitted that he was shocked because the development had no basis in law or politics.
“I am shocked. In logic, in law, in politics, there is no
basis for this decision whatsoever,” the governor said.
He explained that the court order upon which the
INEC based its decision was about zonal and state
executives of the PDP and was not about the 2016
election.

While saying that Ibrahim and Eyitayo Jegede were not parties to the suit, the governor said the INEC initially took the right decision by making it clear that it was not state or zonal executive that was empowered by the Electoral Act to conduct election.

He said while the INEC and security agencies monitored the party’s primary elections that produced Jegede in Akure, Ibrahim decided to hold his primary in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital when there was no threat to peace in Akure.

Mimiko said his camp would have disregarded the
Justice Okon Abang’s judgement that ordered INEC to
recognise Ibrahim but for an information given to him that the commission would only act on the last order on the matter.

Based on this, he said his camp appealed the judgement, saying the notice of appeal should naturally have served as a stay of execution.
He said they therefore approached the court and got
two orders mandating INEC not to replace Jegede’s
name.

According to him, while one of the judgements was
served on the commission at about 10am on
Thursday, the other was served at about 3pm.
He added, “Only around 7 or 8 pm (on Thursday), we
got to know that INEC for no justifiable reason had
substituted the name of Jegede and replaced it with
that of Ibrahim.

“The question to ask is on whose order has INEC done
that?” asked Mimiko. Continuing, he said, “Apart from the fact that we have two restraining orders on INEC, the commission knows full well that Jimoh Ibrahim’s primaries was in Ibadan.

“There was no report by security agencies that the
security situation in Ondo State warranted the
movement of the primaries to Ibadan or anywhere
outside the state for that matter.

“Under INEC’s guidelines, the time for substitution of
candidates has even elapsed.”
Mimiko said he decided to meet Buhari to inform him that the INEC’s decision had the potential of setting the state on fire.

He said, “This action potentially can cause a breach of
peace. In Ondo State in the last seven and half years,
we have done everything possible to put good
governance on the table and promote peace.
“We see this action as potentially dangerous. It can
cause conflagration in the state and that is why as the
Chief Security Officer of the state, I have come to alert Mr. President of the potential danger of this injustice so that we can nip it in the bud.”
