The Federal High Court sitting in Lagos on Friday issued an order of perpetual injunction restraining the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from contracting Musiliu Akinsanya popularly known as MC Oluomo to distribute 2023 election materials in Lagos State.
The order also restricted the electoral body from using its privies or any persons acting under its directions from contracting, partnering or appointing any of MC Oluomo’s members and/or drivers in distributing materials in the state.
This is the judgment of Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke in a suit filed by Labour Party, its governorship candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-vivour and four others.
The other applicants in the suit are: African Democratic Congress, Boot Party and their governorship candidates, Funsho Doherty, and Wale Oluwo respectively.
The court had on Monday granted an interim order on the issue before adjourning to hear the substantive case.
