Senator Adeyemi is challenging the validity of the election which produced Usman Ododo as APC’s flag bearer for the November 11 governorship election.
Specifically, Adeyemi, who recently represented Kogi West Senatorial District in the Senate, is claiming that the result brought out by APC in support of Ododo was fraudulent and invalid on the ground that the primary election was conducted in only 11 out of 239 wards in the state.
At the hearing of the Appeal, Counsel to Adeyemi, Musibau Adetumbi, adopted his briefs and prayed the court to grant the reliefs sought by Adeyemi.
In his submission, Counsel for the APC, Abdulwahab Mohammed prayed the Court to dismiss Adeyemi’s appeal on the ground that it is against the concurrent findings of fact by the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court.
After taking the arguments from the parties, Justice Inyang Okoro announced that the final Judgment will be delivered on October 3, 2023.
