The Supreme Court on Friday described the dissolution of local governments in Oyo State and their replacement with caretaker committees as illegal.
Justice Adamu Jauro, who delivered the unanimous judgment of the apex court, ordered that all entitlements owed to the sacked chairpersons from the date of their unlawful sack to the date they were to vacate office, should be paid to them. The apex court set aside the decision of the Court of Appeal in Ibadan and condemned the replacement of the local government council with the caretaker committees.
Recall that the Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, after his inauguration in 2019 had sacked the local government officials.
