Sack Oni, Mustapha now, Kashamu urges Tukur

Dr Bamanga Tukur

Businessman and financier of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ogun State, Prince Buruji Kashamu, has urged the party’s National Chairman, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, to immediately implement the various court judgments nullifying the election of two national officers from the South West.

Kashamu also said Friday’s judgment of a Federal High Court in Abuja which sacked the party’s National Secretary, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, had further established the validity of earlier decisions of the various courts which declared the Chief Adebayo Dayo-led state executive as the only authentic and legally recognised executive of the PDP in Ogun State.

The factional PDP leader, who was reacting to the judgment, told our correspondent that Tukur should use the opportunity to sack Oyinlola; the National Auditor, Bode Mustapha; and the Vice Chairman, South West, Mr. Segun Oni, from the offices they currently occupy.

Kashamu said, “This (judgment) is very good. Oyinlola was removed as governor of Osun State because of such illegalities. It was this same attitude he exhibited as the party’s national secretary.

“He has been working against the rule of law concerning Ogun PDP by opposing the legally recognised Adebayo Dayo-led state exco.

“Tukur (PDP national chairman) should seize this opportunity to throw him (Oyinlola), Bode Mustapha and Segun Oni out of office because the courts have nullified their positions. The rule of law has prevailed in the case of these sacked national officers of the party.”
