Osun Governorship Election: Adeleke wins at Supreme Court

The Supreme Court has set aside the appeal by Adegboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress (APC) challenging the election of  Ademola Adeleke of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as Osun State Governor.

The apex court, in its judgment on Tuesday read by Justice Emmanuel Agim, also upheld the Appeal Court’s judgment which upheld the election of Adeleke as the state governor.

It held that the appellant failed to adduce enough evidence to prove his allegation of overvoting in the July 16, 2022 governorship poll.

The judgment is affirmed and adopted by the entire five members of the panel.

According to all the members of the panel, the appeal lacks merit.
