BREAKING: Appeal Court Upturns Tribunal Judgement, Upholds Adeleke As Governor of Osun State

Following the governorship polls held in Osun state, an Election Petition Tribunal had sacked Senator Ademola Adeleke  from office, saying that the Senator did not score the majority of lawful votes during the July 16 governorship polls.

However, in a unanimous agreement by a three man panel led by justice Mohammed Shuaibu, the Court of Appeal quashed the tribunal’s judgement and gave its verdict to uphold Adeleke as rightful governor of Osun State.

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.
