Ekiti PDP Disown Swearing-in Of Executives
The attention of the party has been drawn to a purported swearing-in of the ward Executives by one notary public , Barrister Niyi idowu. Ordinarily, one would have allowed those who hired him without authority to be swimming in an ocean of absurdity and unconstitutionality but the party has a duty to to check their recklessness in order not to mislead the ordinary man on the street and our party members:
1. I Barrister Gboyega Oguntuwase still remain the state party chairman.
2. I declare that the purported swearing-in was done during the pendency of the outgoing ward executives of the party whose tenure ends today and except for dubious political game and recklessness; a proper swearing-in can only be done after the expiration of their tenure.
3. I wish to state that I up till today and now I have not received any letter from anywhere directing me to do any swearing-in for anybody.
4. Even if I receive one now, the directive of the dejure governor of the state concerning social distancing will impede any gathering and swearing in.
5. I know also that there is a case before a federal high court in Ado Ekiti concerning the congress. Its is a rudimentary principle of law that matters before courts must not be obstructed as to foist a situation of hopeless on litigants and helplessness on the court.
6 . The notary public contracted to do the swearing-in is not known to the party as I did not mandate anybody to get him to work for us.
7. I appeal to all to remain calm until by constitutional means, every thing is resolved.
