In a statement on Monday by the party’s state publicity secretary, Oluseye Oladejo, the committee is made up of Lawal Pedro SAN, who is also the Attorney-General and Honorable Commissioner for Justice in Lagos State, and Otunba Abiodun Olufowobi as Secretary.
“Other members are Rt. Hon. Jokotola Pelumi, a former Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Hon. Lanre Ogunyemi, a former honorable member of the house of assembly and State Secretary of the party; and Chief Chukwudi Adiukwu.
We hereby advise discontented aspirants to submit their appeals to the committee no later than 12 noon on Tuesday, May 13th, 2025.”
According to him, the appeal committee was necessary to look into pockets of protests from dissatisfied aspirants who participated in the exercise.
