Barrister Jimoh Ibrahim has said that he would proceed to the Supreme Court to challenge Wednesday’s judgment by the Court of Appeal that nullified his emergence as the PDP governorship candidate for Saturday’s governorship election in Ondo State.
Ibrahim, who stated this in a statement, alleged that the judgment delivered by the Court of Appeal was “paid for.”
“I have read the decision of the Court of Appeal delivered today (yesterday). We have nothing to lose as the Supreme Court seats on the same case tomorrow (today).
“We shall get justice at the Supreme Court and if PDP wins Saturday’s election, we shall have our four years mandate to rule Ondo State. Let me advise you not to abuse anyone or fight over this one-day ruling, which was paid for from the state treasury. Mimiko will not succeed himself with Jegede this is too sure.
“We will continue with our work and remain in our great party, PDP. I love the great people of Ondo State and I thank you all for your continuous support,” he said.
