PRINCE OLAGUNSOYE OYINLOLA, THE EMBATTLED PDP AUTHENTIC NATIONAL SECRETARY

Former Governor of Osun State, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola has reacted to the judgment given by the Court Of Appeal sitting in Abuja that invalidated his sack as the National Secretary of the ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP). Speaking to Channels Television correspondent in Osun State, Prince Oyinlola described the ruling as a demonstration of fairness, justice and equity.
“If you look at the genesis of the whole thing, the INEC that witnessed the convention of last year declared that 4 of the members of the National Working Committee had their elections duly conducted and that has to do with the Chairman, The Secretary, Financial Secretary and the Treasurer.”
“So if the umpire has so declared, I don’t see how anybody else would say things have not been done appropriately.”
Speaking further, he also restated his confidence at getting a favourable judgment should the PDP decide to take the case up to the Supreme Court.
He said, “It is the right of the PDP to go to the upper court but I don’t think that will change the fact of the case, we will all go there to present our cases before the Supreme Court and I have no doubt in my mind that justice will equally be served at the Supreme Court.”
He commended the reforms in the Nigerian judiciary, saying that the judgment shows that all is not lost.
