Court Stops Amotekun From Participating In Osun Election
The Osun Security Network popular as Amotekun Corps will not participate in the gubernatorial election Saturday, July 16.
This comes after a Federal High Court sitting in Osogbo, the Osun State capital restrained the corps from taking part in the election.
The court also ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), from using the Amotekun Corps as part of the personnel to be deployed to provide security in the election.
The order warned Amotekun not to serve as either security personnel or volunteer in the guber election.
“That the 1st defendant (INEC) is hereby restrained from requesting the deployment of the second defendant (AMOTEKUN) as part of the security personnel deployable for the purpose of Osun 2022 governorship election pending the determination of the originating summons filed in the suit,” the order read in part.
