All Progressives Congress members, Michael Famurewa and Olawale Ayilara have dropped the lawsuit against the candidature of Idris Abiola-Ajimobi for a seat in the Oyo State House of Assembly.
Recall that Idris beat Michael Famurewa and Olawale Ayilara in May and won the All Progressives Congress (APC) ticket for Ibadan South-West II State Constituency. However Michael Famurewa and Olawale Ayilara opposed his emergence.
The duo have now withdrawn their suit against the son of the ex-governor Abiola Ajimobi.
The court struck out the case after Famurewa and Ayilara dropped the legal action.
In his reaction on Friday through spokesman Lateef Alade, Idris commended the co-contestants.
The flagbearer noted that the plaintiffs demonstrated maturity and loyalty to the party.
Idris also thanked APC leaders for their intervention which led to amicable resolution of the issue.
“I assure our leaders, co-contestants, constituents and other members of the party that I will justify the confidence reposed in me through quality representation”, he said.
