Akinjide, Kolapo Ishola, Omololu Olunloyo, Senator Kamorundeen Adedibu and
others, described the action of the national leadership of the party as an act of
illegality.

Briefing newsmen at the end of the meeting, Former attorney general of the
federation, Chief Richard Akinjide, said the PDP national leadership is committing
what he described as contempt of court as a court of law had ruled that no state
executive should be dissolved.
