The Appeal Court sitting in Abuja has quashed the decision of the Osun State Governorship tribunal and upheld the election of Ademola Adeleke.
In a judgment a moment ago, a three-member panel of the appellate court, presided over by Justice Mohammed Shuaibu, held that Gboyega Oyetola and his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) – listed as the first and second respondents – failed to prove their allegation of over voting before the election tribunal.
The judgment was on the appeal filed by Adeleke, marked: CA/AK/EPT/GOV/01/2023.
The court is delivering judgment in the cross-appeal filed by Oyetola and the APC.
There other two appeals in respect of which the court will still deliver judgment. They are the appeals by the PDP and INEC.
