Governor of Ondo state, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, has relocated to Abuja in order to ensure justice for Mr. Eyitayo Jegede, who is gunning to be the next governor of the state.
The governor revealed this in Akure on Wednesday at a programme in honour of the Founder, Oodua Peoples Congress, Dr. Frederick Fasehun.
Mimiko, who was the chairman on the occasion, expressed the hope that Jegede would get justice.
The governor said, “I am now a part-time resident of Abuja these days (in order) to ensure my people get justice and I know the injustice will not stand.”
Acting on the order of an Abuja High Court, the Independent National Electoral Commission removed the name of Jegede from the list of contestants for the governorship election coming up on November 26.
The electoral commission replaced the name of Jegede with that of business mogul, Jimoh Ibrahim, who is a member of the Senator Modu Sheriff’s faction of the Peoples Democratic Party.
