Eyitayo Jegede of the Makarfi-led Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the November 26 2016 Governorship election in Ondo State has called for calm among his supporters following the indefinite adjournment of the case by the Appeal Court justices sitting on the party’s governorship candidate tussle earlier scheduled for today.

He also said he would be heading to the Supreme Court to regain his mandate.

The three man appellate justices headed by Justice Ibrahim Salauwa had announced to the parties that some set of applicants who had before now submitted a petition against the previous panel, had again filed a motion against the new panel at the Supreme Court seeking to stop further proceedings in relation to all matters touching on the Ondo State PDP governorship candidature.

Jegede in a statement by the Head of Media and Publicity of his Campaign Organization, Kayode Fasua said he was not unmindful of the fact that the temporary setback is the handiwork of some anti-democratic elements hell bent on truncating his mandate for the November 26 2016 polls.

He however said, as a true believer in the rule of law and judiciary, he will be at the Supreme Court next week Tuesday to thrash out issues raised by the appellants.
