In a judgement delivered by Hon. Justice Oguntoyinbo, he ordered a fresh election into respective positions in the party to be conducted within 14 days.
“I hereby order that fresh primary elections be conducted by the current Ogun State Executives of the 2nd Defendant (Peoples Democratic Party) for the nomination of candidates for elective positions i.e House of Assembly, House of Representatives, Senatorial and Governorship elections within 14 days,” he said.
