The supreme court has upheld the victory of Ademola Adeleke, candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the Osun governorship election, AMILOADED reports.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had declared Adeleke winner of the July 16, 2022 Osun governorship election.
Reading the lead judgement, Justice Agim of the Supreme Court established that Oyetola failed to prove over-voting in his Appeal, as the BVAS machines are the basis for proving over-voting.
However, Supreme Court also held that the Election Petitions Tribunal breached Adeleke’s rights to fair hearing and its decision is thus a nullity.
