Kwara PDP Crisis: Court Restrains Ilorin West LG Chairman
An Ilorin High Court has restrained members of the Yusuf Olugbon-led factional executive from parading themselves as Executive Committee members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ilorin West local government area of Kwara State.
The court also restrained the PDP from recognising Olugbon-led faction as Executive Committee of PDP in the council.
The ruling of the court presided over by Justice I. A. Yusuf followed a Motion Exparte filed by another factional chairman, Alhaji Toyin Olosasa and two others against the PDP and 40 others on the purported swearing in of Olugbon-led faction by the state PDP chairman.
The judge in his ruling, however, directed the State Executive of PDP to "collect back any official monuments, cars, money or benefits given to the 35th and 38th defendants (Olugbon and three others) as a result of their swearing in as the Ilorin West Local Government Executive Committee of the PDP, pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice."
The applicants' counsel, Mogaji Oba Abdulkadir, who had filed a 27-paragraph affidavit in support of the applications, told the court that Olugbon-led faction had concluded plans to in turn swear in ward executives, arguing that if the court "fails to grant the prayer, the justice being sought by the applicants will be jeopardised."
