Kwara APC chair sues district head

Date: 2016-09-19

The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kwara State, Ishola Balogun Fulani, has dragged the District Head of Afon, Alhaji Sidiq Atiku, before the Kwara State High Court over eligibility for the stool of Balogun Fulani.

Fulani also contested for the vacant stool of Balogun Fulani of Ilorin.

He alleged that "the claim by Sidiq Atiku that I'm not qualified to vie for the seat was designed to unjustly edge me from the contest."

The suit was filed on his behalf by Mr Kehinde Eleja (SAN). The APC chairman said that Atiku had claimed that he (Ishola) was only related to the Balogun Fulani family through the female line and, thus, not eligible for the stool.

He said that the defendant distorted historical fact for his selfish gains. The APC chairman said that as a descendant of Olufadi, through Balogun Fulani Mohammed Jonko Towani Olufadi, he was a genuine member of the Balogun Fulani family of Ilorin.
