Senator Jimoh Ibrahim, a contender within the Ondo State governorship race, has initiated prison lawsuits against the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa. Vanguard News Agency reports that Senator Ibrahim lodged a lawsuit at the Federal High Court in Abuja to nullify the primary election carried out with the aid of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on April 20, which resulted in Aiyedatiwa's choice as the celebration's gubernatorial candidate.
Alleging irregularities within the primary system, Senator Ibrahim has raised worries regarding breaches of constitutional provisions and electoral laws. Represented by a prison group led by Chris Uche, he contends that the APC violated pertinent prison statutes. The lawsuit seeks to invalidate Aiyedatiwa's candidacy and advocates for an obvious system for determining the APC's nominee for the impending Ondo governorship election scheduled for November 16. This felony motion underscores Senator Ibrahim's dedication to upholding democratic standards and ensuring electoral integrity in Ondo State.
