\n<\/p>\n

Supporters of the Peoples Party of Nigeria in Ogun State on Monday embarked on a protest over what they described as an alleged manipulation of the judiciary by members of the Peoples Democratic Party in the state.<\/span><\/p>\n

The PPN supporters, mostly youths, took to the streets of Abeokuta and displayed placards denouncing the alleged undue usage of the judiciary by the PDP.<\/span><\/p>\n

The PPN had last week raised the alarm of alleged judicial interference and accused the PDP of making moves to use the judiciary through fraudulent means to stop its governorship candidate, Mr. Gboyega Isiaka, from contesting the election.<\/span><\/p>\n

The protesters also threatened that if Isiaka was stopped from contesting the election, they would make the state ungovernable.<\/span><\/p>\n

The protesters, led by the PPN\u2019s publicity secretary in the state, Mr. Raheem Ajayi, and a community youth leader, Kayode Akinsola, displayed placards of various inscriptions including \u2018Judiciary is anti-democracy\u2019, Katsina-Alu, save our democracy\u2019 among others.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our correspondent further gathered that the protesting youths also went to the Federal High Court in Abeokuta, where their leaders submitted a letter of petition to Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Aloysius Katsina-Alu, through the registrar office.<\/span><\/p>\n

The party specifically accused former President Olusegun Obasanjo and Gen. Adetunji Olurin (retd.) of allegedly subjecting the judiciary to their whims and caprices.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ajayi, who spoke with journalists on behalf of the protesters, accused Obasanjo and Olurin of allegedly using the judiciary to truncate democracy.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
