EKO HOT BLOG reports that the leadership of the Action Alliance (AA) on Thursday in Lagos distanced itself from reports of litigation instituted against the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu.
National Chairman of AA, Adekunle Omoaje, said in a statement that the APC presidential standard bearer, had not committed any offence that would warrant court case against him by the party.
Recall that the purported suit against Tinubu, reported in some sections of the media on Wednesday, asked the Federal High Court in Abuja to stop the Independent National Electoral Commission from including the name of the APC in the ballot for the 2023 presidential election.
Reacting to the suit, Omoaje said: “It has come to the notice of the leadership of Action Alliance that a suit was purportedly filed on behalf of the party at the Federal High Court, Abuja against the All Progressive Congress and its presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
“The matter said to be filed and deposed to by one Upkai Ukairo and one Kalu Agu, has nothing to do with Action Alliance.
“As a matter of fact, both Upkai Ukairo and Kalu Agu are alien to the party and its leadership. They most probably are effigies or at best imaginary personalities.”
According to him, the party did not file any suit against Tinubu.

He said that the leadership of the party was busy working to fulfill all legal documentation required by law to participate in the approaching Osun State gubernatorial election and the 2023 general elections.
