Those behind purported injunction against my victory are living in fool’s paradise, says Adeola
The elected Senatorial Candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun West Senatorial District of Ogun State, Senator Solomon Adeola has debunked news about injunction against his victory at the recently concluded primary, adding that those behind the purported injunction are living in fool’s paradise
Penpushing reports that, Adeola said no aggrieved politicians challenge his victory as being speculated stressing that it was fake news, emphasizing that no court has granted any injunction stopping the concluded primary or in any way questioning his landslide victory.
‘Ordinarily, the victorious Senator Adeola in the concluded primary would have let the authors of the court papers live in their fool’s paradise but is now forced to react to the spreading of what amounts to fake news and blatant lies’, he said
Penpushing further reports that, the Senator in a statement of rebuttal issued by his media adviser, Chief Kayode Odunaro, recalled that the primary had the participation of his opponent, Senator Tolu Odebiyi
‘The fact of the matter is that no court has granted any injunction stopping the concluded primary or in any way questioning the landslide victory of Senator Adeola last Saturday which had the participation of his opponent, Senator Tolu Odebiyi who scored zero vote to lose to Senator Adeola’s 294 votes as widely reported in the media’, the statement said.
‘There is no iota of truth in the statement as the mentioned litigants only filed motion seeking an injunction restraining Senator Adeola from participation in a primary that was to took place some hours to the filing of the court papers. Predictably no judge was assigned to the case and as we speak we are not aware of the assignment of the case to any judge’, Odunaro added. ‘
‘Senator Adeola is not averse to anyone following the rule of law in their failed agitation to engage in politics of exclusion and will join issues with any litigants following due process. But the judicial process and the media must not be manipulated to serve base and vile ambition of a grossly unpopular aspirant for a democratic political office’.
Penpushing also reports that, Adeola called on members of the public to disregard the fake news, and equally urged leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to sanction any erring members engaging in what amounts to gross anti-party activities.
‘We urge members of the public to disregard the fake news of an injunction against the hard-won landslide victory of Senator Adeola in the Ogun West Senatorial APC primary of Saturday, May 28, 2022 and further urge the party to sanction any erring members engaging in what amounts to gross anti-party activities’, the statement emphasised.
