The Federal High Court in Osogbo, Osun State, has nullified the convention of the Action Alliance (AA) organized by Mr. Kenneth Udeze and reaffirmed Hon. Adekunle Rufai Omoaje as the party’s legitimate National Chairman.
In its ruling, the court declared that the only recognized convention of the party was the one held at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta, Ogun State, which produced Omoaje as the National Chairman.
Justice Funmilola Dem-Ajayi, who delivered the judgment, granted all reliefs sought by Omoaje and directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to recognize him as the authentic leader of the party.
The court further affirmed that the National Executive Committee (NEC) of Action Alliance, constituted on October 7, 2023, under Omoaje’s leadership, remains the lawful governing body of the party.
It also ruled that the party’s official secretariat is located at Plot 955, No. 17, Femi Otedola Crescent, off Seventh Avenue, Gwarimpa, Abuja, warning that any attempt to operate from an unauthorized location would be deemed unlawful.
Additionally, the court declared all congresses and conventions organized by Kenneth Udeze as illegal, null, and void.
Reacting to the judgment, Omoaje called on INEC, security agencies, and relevant authorities to enforce the ruling and uphold the rule of law.
He reassured party members of his commitment to strengthening democracy, good governance, and national development under his leadership.
