A Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court has granted an order of interim injunction restraining the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Ademola Adeleke, from taking part in the September 22 governorship election in Osun State.
The court presided over by Justice O.A. Musa also restrained the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from recognising Adeleke as the candidate of the PDP in the election.
The court, in Abuja, further gave an order compelling the West African Examination Council (WAEC) to depose to an affidavit either denying or confirming that Adeleke sat for the Senior Secondary School Examination in May/June 1981 conducted by the examination body at Ede Muslim High School in Osun State.
The judge specifically ordered the examination body to produce in court the ledger containing results of Ademola and his mates with whom he sat for the examinations.
The court ordered that WAEC should file the ledger and the verifying affidavits within five days of being served with the enrolled order.
The ruling followed an ex parte application by two plaintiffs, Mr Wahab Raheem and Mr Adam Habeeb, in suit number: FCT/HC/BW/CV/122/2018, in which Adeleke, PDP, and INEC were joined as first, second and third defendants respectively.
