The Governor-elect of Oyo state, Mr. Seyi Makinde on Tuesday hailed the judgment of an Oyo state high court, dismissing the suit by a gubernatorial aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party, Senator Ayoade Adeseun, challenging his emergence as the party’s flagbearer in October last year.
Makinde appealed to the people of the state to move on in spite of the little distraction caused by the dismissed case instituted by Senator Adeseun.
In a statement signed by Mr Dotun Oyelade, the governor- elect said it was the hallmark of democracy that the minority’s opinion must be heard but must not be allowed to overwhelm that of the majority.
According to him, that was what the judgement of the court just proved today.
He praised the court for being objective and dispassionate in its judgement “inspite of obvious extra judicial interventions.”
