Perjury: Court Orders Arrest of Former Ekiti PDP Secretary

A High Court in Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, has ordered the arrest of a former Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state, Mr. Bode Olaonipekun, for allegedly committing perjury.

The court, presided over by Justice Abiodun Adou, made the order following a petition filed by the PDP against Olaonipekun, who was accused of lying under oath during a court proceedings.

According to the petition, Olaonipekun had testified in court that he was not a member of the PDP, but investigations revealed that he was indeed a member of the party.

The court, after hearing the petition, found Olaonipekun guilty of perjury and ordered his arrest to enable him to face trial.

The PDP had accused Olaonipekun of committing perjury in order to cover up his involvement in the party's internal crisis.

The party had also accused Olaonipekun of being involved in the alleged manipulation of the party's primary election in the state.

The court's order has sparked controversy in the state, with many calling for Olaonipekun's immediate arrest and prosecution.

The case has also raised questions about the integrity of the court system in the state, with many calling for reforms to prevent similar cases of perjury in the future.

It is unclear at this time what the next steps will be in the case, but it is expected that Olaonipekun will be arraigned in court soon to face trial.
