An Abuja Federal High Court on Friday ordered the Peoples Democratic Party and the Independent National Electoral Commission to replace the name of Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola with that of Prof. Adewale Oladipo as the party’s National Secretary.

Justice Abdul Kafarati, who gave the order while ruling on an application filed by the Ogun State chapter of the PDP, ordered that the replacement must be reflected in PDP’s records at INEC within three days.

Oyinlola, PDP and INEC were listed as the defendants in the suit.

The order followed a January 11, 2013 judgment, in which the Abuja FHC sacked Oyinlola as PDP National Secretary.

Justice Kafarati had, in the January 11 judgment, ordered INEC to rectify the records of the PDP by deleting Oyinlola’s name as the party’s National Secretary and replace him with a candidate nominated at a valid congress of the South-West Zone chapter of the party.
