PDPThe Adebayo Dayo-led executives of the Ogun State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has dragged the national executive of the political grouping to the Federal High Court, Abuja, challenging its powers to dissolve the committee.
The suit, instituted by Chief Dayo and Semiu Sodipo on behalf of themselves and the Ogun State Executive committee of the PDP, has the party, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and Elder Yemi Akinwonmi as the first, second and third defendant respectively.
The plaintiffs are also praying the court to replace Akinwonmi, who was elected Deputy National Chairman (South) of the PDP at its National Convention on December 9, with Honourable Segun Seriki.
The former National Caretaker Committee of the party, led by Senator Ahmed Makarfi, had dissolved the executives in August and replaced it with a caretaker committee.
