NNPP's Rotham Withdraws Suit Against Senator Adeola
Comrade Akinbola Rotham, the Governorship candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), announced the withdrawal of his suit (Suit No. FHC/AB/CS/135/2026) against Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola concerning indigeneship eligibility.
At a press conference in Abeokuta, Rotham stated that the decision was made in the best interest of the Ogun West agenda and the future of Ogun State. He emphasized that both he and Senator Adeola are from Ogun West and that the senatorial district deserves to produce the next governor after 50 years.
Rotham expressed that the collective aspiration of Ogun West should take precedence over individual ambitions and that democracy should focus on competence and governance rather than divisive issues like indigeneship. He clarified that his withdrawal was not influenced by financial inducements and extended a hand of fellowship to Senator Adeola, advocating for unity and constructive competition in the upcoming 2027 governorship election.
