I Am Still The Ogun PDP Candidate: Kashamu

By Yakubu Lawal

Senator Buruji Kashamu said he remains the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ogun state and that a ruling by the Appeal Court in Ibadan today, does not affect his status.

He said the interpretation being peddled around that Oladipo Adebutu has been reinstated as the candidate is ‘fake news’.

The Appeal Court in Ibadan today set aside a court order which directed INEC to recognise the list of candidates submitted for the 2019 general elections by a faction of Ogun PDP loyal to Sen. Buruji Kashamu.

Here is Kashamu’s interpretation of the judgment, according to a statement by Austin Oniyokor

“We have received the news of the judgment of the Court of Appeal sitting in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital that set aside the orders ofthe Federal High Court, Abeokuta.

”We wish to clarify that contrary to the false news being spread by our opponents, the Court of Appeal did not declare Honourable Oladipupo Adebutu or anyone for that matter as the Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ogun State. That was not the prayers of PDP who are the appellants in the matter and so such a prayer could not have been granted.

”The Court specifically held that it was not a pre-electionmatter where the nomination of candidates is in issue since the matter was filed by the Engr. Adebayo Dayo-led Ogun State PDP and not aspirants.

”Having held that it was not a pre-election matter, theCourt of Appeal could not have made a pronouncement on the validity or otherwise of the nomination of candidates for the 2019 general election.

“What is more, the 25th of October, 2018 letter written by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) emphatically stated that its decision to accept the list of candidates submitted by the Engr. Adebayo Dayo-led Exco was predicated on three court suits, namely FHC/L/CS/636/2016, FHC/L/CS/1556/2017 and FHC/AB/CS/114/2018. It is only the interlocutory orders in FHC/AB/CS/114/2018 that were set aside.

”The full and final judgments in FHC/L/CS/636/2016 and FHC/L/CS/1556/2017 in favour of the Engr. Adebayo Dayo-led Ogun State PDP Exco which are yet to be set aside and do not have any subsisting appeals against them still remain.

”It should also be pointed out that based on the judgments in FHC/L/CS/636/2016 and FHC/L/CS/1556/2017 in favour of the Engr. Adebayo Dayo-led Ogun State PDP Exco, INEC had in an earlier letter dated 12th April, 2018, informed the PDP of the commission’s compliance with the two judgments of the Federal High Court.

”The extant judgment of the Court of Appeal in this appeal does not finally determine the matter. That is why it ordered that the case file should be returned to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court for reassignment of the case to another judge who will hear and determine the originating summons.

”Flowing from the above, we wish to reassure our teeming supporters, party leaders and elders, friends and associates that nothing has changed. The nomination of Senator Buruji Kashamu and all other candidates of the Ogun State PDP based on the valid and subsisting judgments mentioned above has not changed.

“Finally, our lawyers have taken steps to immediately appealthe judgment of the Court of Appeal to the Supreme Court”.NAN

One of the biggest advantages of autoflowering strains is their know-how to automatically change-over from vegetative proliferation to flowering, regardless of mild cycle.
