Secretary of PDP in Ekiti State, Dr Tope Aluko                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 The embattled Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ekiti State, Dr Tope Aluko, has moved to vacate the warrant of arrest issued against him by a chief  magistrate court in Ado Ekiti last week.
Chief magistrate  Adesoji Adegboye had on February 3, 2016, granted
an order compelling the police to bring Aluko to court to answer to charges of perjury slammed against him by the state government.

Aluko was  alleged to have recounted the statement earlier made on oath during the trial of the election of Governor Ayodele Fayose at the Election Petition Tribunal, where he served as a principal witness to the Peoples Democratic Party in a case instituted by the All Progressives Congress.
The PDP scribe had a couple of weeks ago granted an interview where he averred that the election of June 21, 2014, where Fayose trounced ex-governor Kayode Fayemi to emerge governor was allegedly rigged by  the PDP in cahoots with the military .
