Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the state government of deliberately inducing legal crises to undermine elected local council officials.
The party, therefore, urged the National Judicial Council (NJC) to intervene urgently in the matter.
Meanwhile, local council workers resumed duty across council secretariats yesterday, after an 11-month strike, with heavy security deployment observed at various offices.
A member of the House of Representatives, Bamidele Salam, condemned the alleged harassment, unlawful detention and public humiliation of an Egbedore Local Council worker in the state.
This was as religious leaders from various denominations in the state gathered yesterday, praying for the re-election of Governor Ademola Adeleke in the August 8, 2026, governorship election.
Addressing a press conference at the party’s secretariat in Osogbo yesterday, the APC Chairman, Tajudeen Lawal, said the controversy stemmed from a February 10, 2025, Court of Appeal judgment, which nullified an earlier decision that had removed APC elected chairmen and councillors across the state.
Lawal, who stated that the court judgment was never appealed by the state government, yet it was allegedly ignored, added that the reinstated chairmen and councillors resumed duties on February 17, 2025, in line with the ruling.
