TRACKING_____The Ogun State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in the 2019 general election, Senator Buruji Kashamu, has said that the recently held congresses of the party, which produced a new set of party executives, followed due process.

He stated this in a statement titled: “Setting the records straight on Ogun State PDP executive committee”, released in Lagos at the weekend.

According to the former lawmaker, the statement became imperative in light of falsehood and misinformation being peddled by some people.

Kashamu said contrary to the lie being bandied in some quarters that an order was made by Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court stopping the conduct of PDP congresses in Ogun State, there was nothing of such.

He said that a suit was filed by some people in the name of the PDP against the authentic Ogun State PDP Executive Committee seeking a review of the judgment, which had ordered that only the said authentic Ogun State PDP Executive Committee could conduct congresses or primaries of the PDP in Ogun State.

According to him, “the reliefs sought were to the effect that the court should decide that because of some Supreme Court judgments (that allegedly suggest that only the NEC of a political party may conduct congresses and primaries), the judgment in Suit No. FHC/L/CS/636/2016 was not valid in empowering the Ogun State PDP Executive Committee to conduct congresses for its successors in 2020.”
