The attitude of Lagos state
commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs Bar.Ademorin Kuye, at an All Progressive Congress political meeting
held at Somolu Local Government Banquet Hall on 5th of march,2014
where he descended on a fellow politician
Hon Olugbenga Hakeem Abdullahi
a 57 years old man as was trying to caution his rationale for moving a motion
for the imposition of a candidate on the members as this move is contrary to
the code conduct of the All Progressive Party.
This attitude of the honourable
commissioner is so unbecoming of a legal practitioner, a public office holder
and a man with a post graduate diploma in Theology of the Redeemed Christian
Church of God and above all a member of the All Progressive party, a party that
will not leave any stone unturned when comes to opposition party displaying any
act of thurgery, unfortunately he has dragged the name of APC in the mud.
Political party or not, there is
a code of conduct prescribed under the fifth schedule of the 1999 constitution
of the Federal Republic of Nigeria for public office holder, commissioners of
the government of the states are not left out Section 9 of fifth Schedule states that a public officer shall not do
or direct to be done, in abuse of his office, any arbitrary act prejudicial to
the rights of any other person knowing that such act is unlawful.
From the above quoted section of
the constitution it is obvious that Bar. Kuye has acted in contrary to the
provision of code of conduct of public office holder, we hereby call on the acting publicity secretary of the Alliance
Progressive Party Alhaji Lai
Muhammed to put its house in order by bringing this man to book so that it
will serve as deterrent to others, the change we desire starts with us.
It was also gathered that this
has been the only way the honourable commissioner adoptes in addressing issues
as he has previously beaten a former party colleague into a state of coma Late
Tunde Babalola and several other cases of kuye invading political meetings with
thugs abound within his constituency.
All relevant authorities like
Panti state CID,Alade police station where the
matter was said to have been reported should act accordingly, in the
interest of justice and fair play. Eko oni Baje oooo
Thank you
