Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 45440, member: 636"] Governor Ademola Adeleke plans to settle Osun State's local government fight through the courts. His team says the recent Appeal Court decision proves that PDP chairmen and councillors won their jobs fairly. The ruling backs up what happened after PDP candidates swept all positions during elections held on February 22, 2025. Adeleke praised local people for staying patient and following proper legal steps. He thanked security forces for keeping peace across the state. The ruling came after months of arguing between PDP and APC parties about two different court decisions. APC leaders claim a February 10 court ruling brought back their sacked chairmen from 2022 elections. PDP officials disagree and say the court never brought anyone back to power. The June 13 decision refused to restart an appeal from other political groups about the same issues. APC party lawyers warn that only the Supreme Court can make the final call on these disputes. They accuse Adeleke and PDP of twisting what the court rulings actually mean. The party wants federal police chiefs and the Attorney General to step in and stop what they call illegal takeovers. APC leaders also brought up deadly violence from February 17 that killed seven party members during earlier conflicts. Both sides continue fighting over who really controls the 30 local councils across Osun State. The dispute has created confusion about which officials can legally run local governments. Political tensions remain high as each party waits for higher courts to settle the matter once and for all. [/QUOTE]
