Osun: PDP Condemns Attempt To Halt Adeleke’s Inauguration

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has condemned an alleged attempt by some members of the opposition trying to stop the inauguration of the Osun State Governor-elect, Ademola Adeleke slated for Sunday 27 November 2022.

Naija News gathered that the Chairman of the PDP Osun State Caretaker, Dr Akindele Adekunle alleged that some people approached a Federal High Court sitting in Osogbo to ask for an order to stop Adeleke’s inauguration.

According to g to him, it’s out of place for some defeated politicians to want to stop a democratic process because of their greed for power.

Adekunle in a statement commended the judiciary for refusing to grant an order to stop the governorship inauguration of Adeleke.

He called on the legal disciplinary committee to summon the group of lawyers behind such acts for disciplinary encounters for alloying themselves to use as a tool to destabilize democracy in the state.

The PDP caretaker chairman said “His lordship, Justice Emmanuel, in his wisdom, declined to grant the order, adjourning the case to Thursday to explain why the swearing-in must stop.

“It beats the imagination of any sound mind to even contemplate halting a democratic constitutional process. The greed for power is driving some defeated politicians into electoral insanity.

“We call on the legal disciplinary committee to summon the affected lawyers for a disciplinary encounter. There must be a red line. To surrender oneself as a tool to destabilise democracy should warrant disciplinary action from the bar.”
