The Supreme Court dismissed a suit by Osun State Attorney General Oluwole Jimi-Bada, seeking federal release of withheld local government allocations. The court found the state government’s legal action incompetent in a 6-1 decision on Friday.
The verdict sparked contrasting reactions from Osun ALGON (APC) and Osun PDP. Both groups welcomed the judgment, albeit with differing justifications for their respective political stances, each affirming it as a victory for democracy.
