A Chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ondo State, Mr.
Timi Olopele, has dragged the state Deputy Governor, Mr Agboola Ajayi, to the state High Court, seeking his disqualification from the primary holding on July 22, 2020.In the suit number: AK/45M/2020, Olopele prayed the court to stop Ajayi from participating in the primary election of the party, saying he breached the code of conduct for public officeholders. He asked the court to ban the deputy governor from holding any public office for a maximum period of 10 years.
The plaintiff also prayed for Ajayi’s disqualification for “breaching of the provisions of the regulations of the West African Examination Council Act, Cap W4 Law of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 2004.” In his reaction, the deputy governor described the suit seeking his disqualification from the primary of the PDP as an exercise in futility.
