*COURT AFFIRMS BAMOFIN LADIPO JOHNSON AS NDC LAGOS CENTRAL SENATORIAL CANDIDATE: MEDIA TEAM CALLS FOR UNITY AND AN ISSUE-BASED CAMPAIGN*
Bamofin Ladipo Johnson NDC, Lagos Central Senatorial CandidateThe Media Team of Bamofin Ladipo Johnson, the official Lagos Central Senatorial Candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), welcomes the landmark judgment delivered this afternoon by the Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos.
In the judgment presided over by the Honourable Justice D. E. Osiagor, the court entirely dismissed the suit filed by Hon. Babasola Sebanjo challenging the outcome of the party’s primary election. The court ruled decisively that the suit failed for want of jurisdiction and completely lacked merit, thereby validating the transparency and integrity of the internal democratic processes of the NDC.
We commend our legal team, led by Adebola Adewara, Esq. and Adekunle Akitoye, Esq., for their exceptional representation. We also acknowledge the steadfast defense put forward by the 1st Defendant’s lawyer (NDC), Ikechukwu Onodi, and the 2nd Defendant’s lawyer (INEC), Mr. Hassan T. Fajimite, Esq.
With this legal distraction firmly put behind us, Bamofin Ladipo Johnson extends a hand of fellowship to Hon. Babasola Sebanjo and his supporters. The primary election was a family affair, and the true victory belongs to the people of Lagos Central who are deserving of robust representation.
"Team Ladipo Johnson for Lagos Central" remains fully focused on moving forward. We are ready to launch a purposeful, vibrant, and issue-based campaign that addresses the core needs of the Lagos Central Senatorial District—ranging from economic empowerment and youth development to sustainable infrastructure and inclusive governance.
We urge all party faithful, stakeholders, and residents of Lagos Central to unite as we march toward victory. The time has come to focus entirely on the issues that matter to our constituents and deliver the progressive leadership that Lagos Central deserves.
Signed:
*DEBORAH AINA*
