The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja upholds Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State as the duly elected governor and throws away the earlier tribunal judgment that nullified his election.
“The appellate court, in a unanimous decision by a three-member panel of Justices, held that the appeal Adeleke lodged to challenge his sack by the Osun State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal, was meritorious. Aside from setting aside the judgement of the tribunal, the court, in its lead judgement that was delivered by Justice Mohammed Lawal, awarded N500, 000 cost against the All Progressive Congress, APC, and its candidate, Gboyega Oyetola,”
