The above listed Judgments Conclusively Settled the issues that have to do with the authentic National Chairman and leadership of Action Alliance in favor of Chief Barr Kenneth Udeze-led National Leadership of the party .
That one Adekunle Rufai Omoaje,his agents and privies after loosing various Suits at both the FCT High Court, Abuja Judicial Division of the Federal High Court and Abuja Judicial Division of the Court of Appeal all in favour of Chief Barr Kenneth Udeze-led National Leadership of the party most especially Federal High Court Abuja Judgement in Suit Number: FHC/ABJ/CS/626/2024 and Abuja Judicial Division of the Court of Appeal Judgement in Appeal Number: CA/ABJ/CV/1163/2024 wherein both the Federal High Court and the Court of Appeal Refused and declined recognition of the purported 7th, October,2023 National Convention of the party held in Abeokuta, Ogun State wherein Adekunle Rufai Omoaje Claimed he was elected National Chairman of AA with his Executives.
That Adekunle Rufai Omoaje, his agents and privies after loosing various Court Judgements in Abuja as enumerated above in favour of Chief Barr Kenneth Udeze-led National Leadership of the party, ran to Osogbo Judicial Division of the Federal High Court and secretly filed a fresh Suit against only INEC fraudulently using the name of Action Alliance as the 1st plaintiff without the Consent and approval of the authentic National leadership of the party and without joining Chief Barr Kenneth Udeze-led National Leadership of the party and Supressed material facts of Subsisting Judgement of the FCT High Court, Abuja Judicial Division of the Federal High Court and Abuja Judicial Division of the Court of Appeal from the Federal High Court Osogbo and fraudulently obtained Judgement against the subsisting Judgement of the Superior Courts and Court of Coordinate Jurisdiction on same Subject matter of AA leadership tussle already settled by the Courts.

That it may interest Nigerians to note that the same Adekunle Rufai Omoaje, his agents and privies that ran to Federal High Court Osogbo and fraudulently obtained the Judgement in their favour has a pending Appeal at the Supreme court Challenging one of the Court of Appeal Judgement that recognises CHIEF BARR KENNETH UDEZE Leadership of the party in Appeal Number: SC/CV/162/2024, Between Adekunle Rufai Omoaje & ORS Vs Chief Uzewuru Nwachukwu, Kenneth Udeze, Action Alliance (AA) and INEC, instead of Adekunle Rufai Omoaje, his agents and previes to wait for the final determination of their appeal pending at the Supreme court in one way or the other, Adekunle Rufai Omoaje ran to Federal High Court Osogbo for forum Shopping and Secretly filed fresh Suit against only INEC fraudulently using Action Alliance Name as the 1st plaintiff without the Consent and authority of the party National Leadership and without joining Chief Barr Kenneth Udeze-led NEC of the party and obtained this fraudulent Judgement from Federal High Court Osogbo against Subsisting Judgements of the Court of Appeal in favour of Chief Barr Kenneth Udeze-led NEC of the party.
That the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is hereby demanded by the National leadership of the Action Alliance (AA) not to give recognition to the fraudulent Judgement obtained by one Adekunle Rufai Omoaje, his agents and privies from Federal High Court Osogbo and Continued recognition of Chief Barr Kenneth Udeze-Led National Leadership of Action Alliance (AA) base on the Various Court of Appeal Judgements recognizing the leadership.
