Justice Joyce Abdulmalik of the Federal High Court, Abuja, has dismissed a suit filed by APC aspirant, Mr. Matthew Oyerinmade, challenging the emergence of Hon. Festus Ayodele Adefiranye as the party’s candidate for Ile-Oluji/Oke-Igbo/Odigbo Federal Constituency in the 2027 House of Representatives election.
The case was dismissed after Oyerinmade sought to withdraw the suit “for personal reasons.”
His counsel, Dr. Remi Olatubora, SAN, told the court of the plaintiff’s intention to withdraw.
However, counsel to Adefiranye — Abiola Olawole, Samuel Ntibi and Daramola Martins opposed the application.
