  • APC in Osun State has withdrawn from the local government election scheduled for Saturday, February 22.

  • The decision comes after a Court of Appeal judgment reinstated the APC’s chairmen and councillors who were previously sacked.

  • The APC stated that the election has become “unnecessary, superfluous, and unlawful” due to the court’s decision.
