A High Court 1 sitting in Oyo town, yesterday struck out a suit filed by the Basorun of Oyo town, High Chief Yusuf Ayoola, and four other claimants against Governor Seyi Makinde and two others on the vacant Alaafin stool.Other claimants in the suit no. HOY/38/2023 include Chief Wakeel Oyedepo, Akinniku of Oyo; High Chief Amuda Yusuf, Areago Basorun; Chief Waheed Oyetunjii; and Chief Gbadebo Mufutau, Baale Alapo.
Lead Counsel to the claimants, Barrister Sobaloju, who was represented in the Court, had earlier sought the withdrawal of suit HOY/38/2023, replacing it with a fresh suit.Vanguard recalls that Barrister Sobaloju, on Monday, requested the maintenance of the status quo on the two motions filed pending before the Court.
But his prayers could not be granted as the defence counsel argued that they were yet to file a counter affidavit on the ex parte motion.However, the counsel to the claimants, instead of progressing with the case as earlier sought, filed a withdrawal of the previous case file and representation of the new file.
It is on this premise that Justice Ladiran Akintola struck out the case and informed the counsels that the date for the hearing of the fresh suit would be communicated.Decomposing bodies found in Abia reflection of insecurity in Nigeria – Peter Obi Even though the counsel wanted the case to be heard, Justice Akintola argued that the case file had to be looked into before fixing the date.Guber poll: Reps task FG to caution political parties in BayelsaGuber poll: Reps task FG to caution political parties in Bayelsa
