Threat to life for asking for the right way of doing things or following the due process is not supposed to stay………………

We have read reports from various news outlets about how some people have been cursing Hon. Dr. Adebukola Abiola Ajaja (Accord Party National Secretary) simply for approaching the court to seek justice, with matters reportedly escalating to the point of threats to her life. Let me use this opportunity to set the record straight.

Dr. Ajaja is the National Secretary of Accord Party. By virtue of her office, she is responsible for handling the party’s correspondence with INEC. However, the National Chairman, in collaboration with the Organising Secretary, allegedly sidelined members of the National Working Committee (NWC), usurping not only her responsibilities but also those of other officers, in what appears to be a deliberate attempt to concentrate power in their own hands.

There are also serious allegations of financial misconduct, including the alleged forgery of Dr. Ajaja’s signature to withdraw money from the party’s account. Furthermore, allegations have been raised that the National Chairman and the Organising Secretary collected money from several candidates under false pretences, making promises they allegedly failed to fulfil.

Another matter reportedly before the court concerns the substitution of a candidate’s name on the INEC portal without the official withdrawal letter of the candidate who won the party’s primaries. There are also allegations of bribery involving INEC officials, including the Legal and former EPM Directors. These matters, according to the case being presented, form part of the evidence intended to be tendered before the court.

To those expressing fears that Dr. Ajaja’s legal action will affect their candidacies, I urge you to take a step back and carefully read the court documents before passing judgment.

Dr. Ajaja is not challenging any candidacy or the process through which anyone emerged as a candidate. Her application to the court is directed at the alleged illegal actions of the National Chairman and the Organising Secretary. She is seeking judicial intervention to reverse actions she considers unlawful.

Seeking redress through the courts is a legitimate way to resolve disputes. It should not automatically make anyone a villain, nor should anyone be subjected to insults, intimidation, or threats for exercising that right.

The facts and evidence should be allowed to speak for themselves in court. Rather than condemn Dr. Ajaja based on one-sided narratives, let us examine the issues objectively and allow the judicial process to take its course.

That is the crux of the matter. Let us separate facts from sentiments, read the court documents, and allow justice to prevail.
