Why We Withdrew Forgery Case Against Obaseki – APC Edo
Posted by E.L.E.X on June 29 2020 under News
Members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo, who filed a case against Governor Godwin Obaseki over alleged certificate forgery, have explained why they withdrew the suit.
The case, suit No FHC/ABJ/CS /553/20 Edobor Williams and others VS APC & Obaseki, was withdrawn from the Federal High Court, Abuja, by the plaintiffs who are APC members.
They said they withdrew the case because they had accomplished their mission, which was to prevent Obaseki from being fielded as APC Governorship candidate for September 19.
Obaseki was disqualified from the primary by the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) before he defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on which platform he is seeking reelection.
In a statement on Tuesday by Shores and Savana, the legal representatives to Edobor Williams and others, the plantiffs said:-
‘’It would be recalled that the plaintiffs were opposed to APC nominating Godwin Obaseki as its gubernatorial candidate for
the September 19, Governorship Election for Edo State on account of Mr. Obaseki’s inconsistent educational history, false credentials and forged Affidavit.‘’These were the same reasons for which APC eventually disqualified Godwin Obaseki from participating in the APC Gubernatorial primaries of 22/6/2020 to the satisfaction of the plaintiffs.
‘’The plaintiffs voluntarily filed a Notice of Discontinuance of the said suit having achieved their objective of stopping APC from sponsoring Godwin Obaseki.
“The public must take notice that the case was never considered on merit. Plaintiffs would take further steps after the nominations of all the parties are concluded and the names of their candidates submitted to INEC.”
