The Osun State Government has requested police assistance to facilitate the takeover of local government areas. This move follows a Federal High Court ruling that dismissed the tenure of the APC-led councils. The state government intends for PDP council chairmen to assume control of these administrative units. Police backing is sought to ensure a smooth transition and maintain order during the process. The court's decision effectively invalidated the current APC leadership's hold on the local governments. This legal victory allows the state to move forward with the installation of new leadership. The situation highlights the ongoing political tension between the APC and PDP within the state.
