The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja has upheld Ademola Adeleke’s election as Osun State governor.
It will be recalled that the Election Petition Tribunal had sacked Adeleke from office, saying that the Senator did not score the majority of lawful votes during the July 16, 2022 governorship polls.
However, in a unanimous agreement by a three-man panel led by Justice Mohammed Shuaibu, the Court of Appeal set aside the decision of the Osun State Gubernatorial Election Petition Tribunal and upheld Adeleke as the validly elected governor of Osun State.
