Business mogul Dr. Jimoh Ibrahim yesterday emerged as the governorship candidate of the Ali Modu Sherif-led faction of the Ondo State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Ibrahim defeated other aspirants at a primary held at the hilltop Premier Hotel, Ibadan.
The factional candidate, who is the Group Managing Director, Energy Group, defeated the only contender, Mr. Olusola Ebiseni, to emerge the factional candidate.
But an Ondo State High Court sitting in Akure, the state capital, yesterday restrained the Senator Alli Modu Sherif-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) from conducting the governorship primary.
Also, the court ordered Ibrahim, Ebiseeni, Bamiduro Dada and Niran-Sule Akinsuyi from presenting themselves as aspirants for such parallel primary election.
