An attempt by a former Secretary of the Ekiti
State chapter of the PDP, Temitope Aluko, to quash an order issued by a
Magistrate Court in Ado Ekiti, for his arrest and prosecution for perjury, has
failed.
-
The court on Wednesday struck out his motion
seeking to set aside a warrant of arrest issued against him on February 3.
-
Mr. Aluko confirmed on television in February
that the 2014 Ekiti governorship election was rigged, months after testifying
in court that the poll was free, fair and credible.
-
On Wednesday, in dismissing the motion filed by
the former PDP secretary’s counsel, Niran Owoseni; the Chief Magistrate, Soji Adegboye,
said the application exercise is time wasting and abuse of court process.
