2023: See What Appeal Court Just Did To Adebutu, Other Ogun PDP Candidates

Following a suit filed by Segun Seriki and others, Justice Oguntoyinbo declared Adebutu’s and others’ candidacy null and void.

Justice Folasade Ojo ruled on Monday that only the party’s National Working Committee has the authority to nominate and conduct a primary election.

The appellate court held that any primary held without the approval of the party’s NWC is invalid.

The lower court’s decision was overturned due to a lack of jurisdiction.

Ojo ordered that all PDP candidates be reinstated by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
