“A copy of this order nisi shall be served on the judgment debtors as required by law,” the court added, and adjourned the case till 4 April for continuation of hearing. Upon learning that Mr Makinde had planned to sacked them, the former chairmen and former councillors filed a suit at the High Court of Oyo State to challenge the constitutionality of Sections 11 and 12 of the Oyo State Local Government Law 2001, which empowered the governor and the House of Assembly to dissolve local government executives in the state.
