Breaking: PDP chief asks court to disqualify Ondo Deputy ahead of primary

Some concerned members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ondo State led by Barr Konstante Timi Olopele, have asked an Ondo State High Court to disqualify Hon. Agboola Ajayi, the Ondo State deputy governor from participating in the gubernatorial primary of the PDP slated for July 22, 2020.

The suit was dated July 17, 2020 with suit no: AK/45M/2020.

They said Ajayi acted in breach of Section 1., 5th Schedule, Part 1 of the Code of Conduct for Public Officers and Section 9 of the 1999 constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended.

Starnews NG reports that they also prayed the court to disqualify Ajayi because it allegedly breached the West African Examination Council (WAEC) Act, Cap W4 Law of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 2004, and that of the Nigerian Law School attendance as an elected Council Chairman then and a former member of the Federal House of Representatives respectively.
