Oladipupo Adebutu had emerged as PDP’s governorship candidate in Ogun State for thr next year’s election, but the outcome has been characterised by internal wrangling in the party.

The Supreme Court agreed with the Court of Appeal in Abuja that the High Court has jurisdiction under section 285 of the 1999 Constitution and section 84 [14) of the Electoral Act 2022 to hear the suit on its merit. But Mr Taiwo, now a retired judge of the Federal High Court, in his judgment delivered on 29 July, declined to hear Mr Lawal’s case on its merit.The judge based his decision on the grounds that PDP’s primary election was a domestic affair.
