It only people that are not leaving in Oyo state that will celebrate this kind judgment. The suffering APC govt inflicted on civil servant in Oyo state is immeasurable. Allow them to come back with their wickedness and go back to the era of constituted authority ( RIP) . many of us had to run out of our comfort zone for survival! Sacking LG chairmen is not justified, but Oyo people beware of politics that will bring the state down!


Judgement makes no difference. The governor already offered to pay them off, dey refused and wanted to resume and sabotage the good work of the governor.

All LG elections should follow the constitution like other offices, not a pet project of the governor

Oyo ALGON : Today’s Supreme Court Judgement is landmark. It set a new preceedent. Supreme Court was unsparing and unequivocal in its judgement. Congratulations to all dissolved Council Chairmen and Councillors.
Will receive full salaries and allowances.

I am highly disappointed at this statement, there's no other reason or importance for receiving judgment than their salary and allowances? Couldn't they ask for their tenure to be renewed? Almost all our politicians are too useless to lead this country to greatness, they're just after their selfish desires in that office angry undecided

The Supreme Court described the dissolution of elected local councils in Oyo State and replacement by caretaker committees as illegal.

The former Chairmen and Councillors will now receive full pay for their full 3-year tenures.

The ruling by the Court will ensure that sacked chairmen, councillors whose tenure are about to expire will now receive the full pay for the 3 years they were supposed to be in Office

While I commend the decision of the Supreme Court, I’m not happy with the consequential order. Receiving the full pay of their unused tenure is not adequate enough and won’t serve as deterrent to other governors.

For justice to be truly served, they should be restored back to office to serve out their full years minus the moths they have served already. That’s the only way to ensure justice is done in this case.

HOW IT ALL STARTED
All the 68 Chairmen and Councillors were elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Saturday May 12, 2018, when the late Senator Abiola Ajimobi was the Governor of Oyo state.

The Chairman of the "sacked" Association of Local Government Of Nigeria (ALGON), Oyo State chapter, Prince Ayodeji Abass-Alesinloye (who doubled as the Local Government Chairman for Oluyole LGA) had obtained an injunction from the Oyo State High Court on May 6, 2019, that restrained the incoming Governor of the State, the State House of Assembly and agents of Government from sacking them.

The sacked chairmen had held on to the injunction when Gov. Seyi Makinde’s administation sacked them on May 29, 2019.

The Government under Makinde nonetheless, approached the Court of Appeal and sought to quash the order, telling the higher court that the injunction was speculative because he had not been sworn in as Governor when it was obtained.

However, in the unanimous judgment of the Court of Appeal, read by Justice Simon Haruna Tsammani, supported by Justices Olujinmi Kayode Bada and Afolashade Ayodeji Ojo, the order of the lower court was set aside on the grounds that it was speculative and premature at the time it was obtained because the incumbent administration had not come to power then.

The Appeal Court okayed the sack.

The Chairmen and Councillors approached the Supreme Court.

If you listen to the valedictory speech of Justice Olabode Rhodes-Vivour (JSC rtd.), you should have seen this judgment coming. The Supreme court is fed up of the governor's trampling on the constitution especially on the administration of Local Government. They can't accept FG to Lord over them but they practically annihilated the LG system as if it is a their spoils of war

governors in APC have sacked chairmen in the past and heaven did not fall. A state like kwara state sacked the democratically elected chairmen and nothing happened from our judiciary till today. This judgement is very sound but it should not be selected

Court injunction made all the difference in this case

LG Chairmen & Councillors have a tenure of 3 years.

A new LG election will take place on May 22, 2021.
. What you said is clear and true I only think that governors will respect the law more carefully when sacked chairmen are reinstated even after two years of litigation . Paying the affected counciiliars and chairmen is not enough to serve as a deterent to our reckless governors on this matter

It is a shame that people focus more and blame the presidency. Our real enemies are the Governors who have pocketed the State House of Assemblies, the Judiciary and the Local Government Chairmen. Too much power is concentrated in their hands and they wont allow the presidency to do the same to them. This country matter tire me o
