The Senator representing Ondo South in the National Assembly, Jimoh Ibrahim has asked a Federal High Court Abuja, to nullify the emergence of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, as Governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress for the November 16 election in Ondo state.
The suit which was filed on his behalf by Chris Uche, SAN, is also seeking an order for the cancellation of the nomination of Aiyedatiwa as APC candidate on the ground that the April 20, primary election that produced him was unlawful.
More so, he wants the court to restrain INEC from accepting governor Aiyedatiwa as the APC governorship candidate in the coming November 16 election.
Aside delisting APC and Aiyedatiwa from the ballot, Ibrahim wants the court to set aside the purported primary election and compel the APC to conduct a fresh one in compliance with Sections 221, 228 of the 1999 Constitution, and 84 of the Electoral Act 2022.
