The Court of Appeal in Abuja on Thursday set aside the March 22, 2019 majority judgment given by the Osun State Governorship Election Tribunal, sacking Governor Adegboyega Oyetola of Osun State.

As it was the case at the Court of Appeal on Thursday, the three-man panel of trial tribunal was also divided in two-to-one in its judgment of March 22, 2019, with the majority judgment upholding the petition by the PDP and Adeleke. The last judgment was on the cross-appeal by the PDP and Adeleke, which was read by Justice Akeju, with other members agreeing that the cross-appeal was unmeritorious and deserved to be dismissed.

“I find and resolve the first issue in favour of the appellant and against the 1st and 2nd respondents She noted that the petition, having been filed before the tribunal on October 16, 2018, the 180 days had lapsed on April 15, 2019.Justice Sankey also upheld the submission of the appellant to the effect that the petition was incompetent as per the reliefs sought therein, which the appellant had argued, were contradictory and ungrantable.

Appeal Court Sets Aside Osun Tribunal Judgment Which Returned Adeleke as Governor - THISDAYLIVEBy Alex Enumah in Abuja The Court of Appeal in Abuja on Thursday set aside the majority decision of the Osun State Election Petition Tribunal, which nullified the election of Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola, and returned candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Ademola Adeleke, as lawful winner of the September 2018 governorship … On a flimsy ground We are not surprise, it was a script that started with the recent arrest and arraignment of Senator Adeleke. When they have been told what judgement to give, they themselves arrested and arraigned him, just to paint him black. Hahaha! We knew it!
