The apex court, in a unanimous judgment by a five-man panel of Justices, dismissed the suit that was lodged by a former governor of the state, Mr. Segun Oni, who lost the gubernatorial ticket of the All Progressive Congress, APC, to Fayemi.
He officially resigned the position on May 30, 2018, about 18 days after he had secured the APC governorship ticket with a total of 941 votes as against 481 votes that were polled by his closest rivalry, Oni.

Dissatisfied with decisions of the lower courts, the former governor, took his case before the Supreme Court where he also lost on Thursday.
