…calls for PDP flagbearer’s prosecution, says excuse lame
The Lucky Aiyedatiwa Campaign Organisation Foot Soldiers Independent Council (LACO-FSIC) has chided the Ondo State Peoples Democratic Party governorship candidate, Agboola Ajayi for allegedly insulting Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa and the Judiciary over the recent judgment nullifying the 33 LCDAs created by late governor Rotimi Akeredolu.
LACO-FSIC said that Governor Aiyedatiwa deserved an apology from Ajayi for accusing him of being the mastermind of the court’s verdict on the matter.
The campaign group also called on the Judiciary to prosecute the PDP guber candidate for his defamatory statement that the judgement of the court was influenced by the Governor.
A statement by the LACO-FSIC State Information Director, Kayode Fasua, reads, “Agboola Ajayi, the PDP governorship candidate should by now have been visited by a court bailiff for insulting the Nigerian judiciary. His excuse that he accused the governor of being responsible for the judgement, and not the High Court Judge is as illogical as it is utter jabbers, and above all, a lame excuse.
“Did Governor Aiyedatiwa institute the suit? Could the governor have stopped individuals and groups from exercising their right to approach the court to seek justice? So for Mr Ajayi to acquiesce himself by saying he was not blaming the judge but Governor Aiyedatiwa, is as good as saying six is different from half a dozen.
“Assuredly, Governor Aiyedatiwa deserves apologies from him, while His Lordship, the Judge that presided over the case, and the Nigerian judiciary are urged to ensure his prosecution for the defamatory statements, that someone influenced the judgement.
