| Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola |
Also joined in the suit are the state’s Attorney General and
Commissioner for Justice as well as Sammya Nigerian Limited.
Before the structure, located at Igbona area, Osogbo, was
converted to party secretariat, it was used as campaign office for the
senatorial ambition of former Osun State governor, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola.
Addressing the court, on Thursday, counsel to the claimant,
Abidoye John Abolarin brought a motion on notice seeking an order of interlocutory
injunction restraining Sammya Nigeria Limited, the construction company,
working on Osogbo/Ilaodo road or any of its agents from carrying out the
demolition of the building being used as Osun Central Senatorial district
secretariat of the Peoples Democratic Party, pending the hearing and
determination of the suit.
Abidoye added that Affidavit of Urgency deposed to by the
Osun Central Chairman of the PDP, Rev. Bunmi Jenyo, was attached to ensure
speedy hearing and determination of the motion ex-parte for the interim orders
so as to protect the property having been told by one of the supervisors of the
construction company presently working on the road, that the building will most
likely be demolished.
In his address, Justice Aderibigbe, said the Certificate of
Occupancy of the building in question was not attached to the motion before the
court and the identity of the true owner of the building in question cannot be
established.
In his reaction, counsel to the claimant said there is a
valid C of O for the building and promised to make the papers available to
court.
Aderibigbe consequently ordered that the respondents be
served the motion on notice and fixed Tuesday, December 4 for hearing of the
motion.
