« on: November 09, 2014, 09:42:10 PM »


The judge handling the case filed against the Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose, has withdrawn from the suit. The case, filed before Mr. Fayose was sworn-in as governor, is to challenge his eligibility for the governorship election.
 
Premium Times learnt that Justice Olusegun Ogunyemi, who was handling the case, has withdrawn from it citing threats to his life.
Mr. Ogunyemi is said to have handed over the case file to the Chief Judge of Ekiti State, Ayodeji Daramola. The online news site also reports that following Mr. Ogunyemi’s withdrawal, judges in Ekiti have been reluctant to take over the case.
