PDPOndo State Chapter of People Democratic Party (PDP) has asked the Chief Judge of Ondo State to reassign its case pending before Justice Sunday Olorundahunsi of the Ondo State High Court.
There have been dispute in some Local Governments over the outcome of the party’s local and state congresses.
While some members have gone to court to challenge the outcome of the congress, others have sought the intervention of leadership of the party in the dispute.
The matter got worse as the PDP through its Secretary, Chief Oyedele Ibini and another leader Chief Adetayo Oyedeji told the Chief Judge, Justice Olanrewaju Akeredolu that said they have lost confidence in the ability of Justice Olorundahunsi to dispense justice in their matter pending before him.
Some PDP members including Mr Tosin Daniyan, Aliyu Nurudeen and 15 others have dragged the PDP, its National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus and four others to court over the outcome of the party congress.
But the PDP in its letter to Chief Judge said they could not get justice from Justice Olorundahunsi in the case pending before the court.
The letter read “we are reiterating the fact that it is easy for the camel to pass through the needle of a hole than to get justice served before the Hon. Justice Olorundahunsi who is the presiding judge.
“The claimants thus have their leader who is sponsoring their case in person of Mr Bode Obanla who is a very close friend of Hon. S. Olorundahunsi.
“The claimants in their report have said that they have no confidence in the presiding judge and in view of this urges the Chief Judge in the Ondo State high court to consider their request as a matter of urgency.”
