Segun Oni, a governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti state, has filed a suit at a Federal High Court in Abuja, challenging Kayode Fayemi’s emergence as the party’s flagbearer for the July 14 governorship election.

Fayemi defeated Oni at the primary on May 12, polling a total of 941 votes.
