Ekiti 2022: Appeal Court Reserves Judgment On Suit Against Gov-elect Oyebanji by lackren(m): 8:07pm On Sep 26, 2022
The Court of Appeal, Ado Ekiti Division, on Monday, reserved judgment in a suit against the Ekiti State Governor-elect, Biodun Oyebanji.

Kayode Ojo, one of the governorship aspirants in the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) filed an appeal in the January 27 primary election, challenging the victory of the Governor-elect, Biodun Oyebanji.

Newsflash Nigeria had reported that a Federal High Court in Ado Ekiti, presided by Justice Babs Kuewumi, had on 4th August struck out a suit filed by Kayode Ojo and upheld Oyebanji’s preliminary objection that the writ of summons and statement of claims of Ojo were defective which it said dealt a fatal blow to the case.

But the appeal brought by Ojo was heard at the court’s sitting on Monday, with parties in the appeal adopting processes filed, including Motions on Notice, Briefs of Argument and Preliminary Objections, among others.

After lawyers to parties in the appeal had adopted their processes and argued their briefs, the presiding judge, Justice M.A.A. Adumein adjourned for judgment on a date expected to be communicated to parties later.

Oyebanji through his counsel, Mr Yakubu Mikyau (SAN) and the APC counsel, Mr Shaibu Aruwa (SAN), whose brief was argued by Titilayo Precious Soje, urged the court to dismiss the appeal for lacking in merit and for being incompetent. Read Full Story Here
