The Senator representing Lagos West, Olamilekan Adeola, has been dragged to court over his decision to seek reelection to the Senate through Ogun West.

DAILY POST reports that Adeola, who has been representing Lagos at the National Assembly since 11 years ago, is seeking a return ticket, this time, from Ogun West Senatorial District.

Amidst controversies, Adeola was declared winner of the APC primary conducted in Ilaro on Saturday, thereby clinching the ticket of the APC.But, some aggrieved politicians in Ogun, Adebiyi Tajudeen, Olajumoke Ibrahim, and Muideen Akintade, have approached a Federal High Court sitting in Abeokuta, seeking an interlocutory injunction, restraining Adeola from participating in the electoral processes leading to the 2023 election in Ogun West.

They also claimed the Lagos politician, fondly addressed as Yayi, did not resign as a Senator representing Lagos West before moving to another State to contest. In the motion filed on Friday, the claimants claimed that the move by Adeola is “undemocratic, flirtatious, disenfranchising, illegal, abnormal, denigrating to the political reputation of the people of Ogun West and Nigeria at large.”
