The embattled court reinstated National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola has written President Goodluck Jonathan to intervene to secure his re-instatement.
Oyinlola who was removed from office as National Secretary of the PDP had the order set aside by an Appeal Court in Abuja but was afterwards suspended by the National Working Committee of the PDP.
The former Governor of Osun State has faulted the process of his suspension and had written both INEC and the PDP leadership asking that he should be reinstated as the National Secretary of the party, but the party had insisted that the suspension is in order.
He said in a statement yesterday that he took the step considering the widely held notion that the perceived long chain of any organisation is its leadership, adding that “I simply refuse to believe that those perpetrating the horrors of numerous atrocities designed to nail Oyinlola at all costs, are not aware of the implication of denigrating the Judiciary and the rule of law; and that my fiercest critics and opponents today are those who are unhappy at my preference for Due Process in administering the affairs of the PDP national headquarters. Most of them are people who were denied attempts to secure undue and illegal political advantage and patronage that would have amounted to the circumvention of regulations.
