Press Statement

Flawed Bwari Judgement Against Senator Adeleke Can Not Stand!!!

We received with bewilderment the judgement of a Bwari High Court on allegation of forgery against Senator Ademola Adeleke and his qualification to contest in the governorship election of Osun state. The judgement delivered today subverted justice by ignoring four critical evidence to rule against validated facts and submissions.

While we are set to appeal the judgement, we also find it compelling to put the records straight by listing out the fatal flaws in the ruling and why it cannot stand before any court.

It would be recalled first of all that the matter in question has been addressed by two High Courts’ ruling, affirming that in the face of the constitution, Senator Ademola Adeleke is qualified to run for the governorship office. The two rulings delivered in September 2018 held that Senator Adeleke satisfied all requirements of the law to contest for office. It is trite in law that once a court of coordinate jurisdiction has ruled on a matter, court of similar jurisdiction cannot entertain it. Shockingly, the Bwari judge breached this precept to subvert justice.

Secondly, we want to note that the judge further erred in law by failing to take note of the expiration of 180 days for ruling on pre-election matters. Even when a December 2018 judgement with respect to the issue was presented, the judge chose to ignore it. We note that the judge violated the law by adjudicating over a matter whose filing and hearing period has expired.

Thirdly, the West African Examination Council was also subpoened by the court at the instance of the two APC plaintiffs (working covertly with some moles within PDP) to present evidence of facts that Senator sat for the WASC Exams. The council produced the listing of all students who sat for the May/June examination in 1981 alongside the Senator in addition to the certified true copies of his school certificate result.

From the evidence produced by the Council, it is crystal clear that Senator Ademola Adeleke was indeed educated beyond the minimum requirement of “up to secondary school level” as stipulated by law and therefore qualified to run for the office of governor in accordance with section 177 (D) of 1999 CFRN (as amended). Not withstanding, the judge still went ahead to rule otherwise.

The only statutory body empowered by law to determine authenticity of a secondary results is the West African Examination Council and they confirmed the authenticity of Senator Adeleke’s result by producing a CTC of the same result. What evidence did the judge therefore base his ruling on?

Fourthly, the plaintiffs shocked by WAEC’s testimony, again subpoened the school principal to appear in court to produce evidence of facts as well as to confirm the authenticity of the statement of results. The principal appeared and confirmed that the statement was genuinely issued by the school and that any error noticed on the statement was that of the school,not that of Senator Adeleke. The school did not at any point disown the statement of results.The school owned up to the error which was not about forgery.

From the foregoing ,we affirm that today's judgement of the Bwari court is a travesty of justice, a purchased ruling designed to negatively affect the outcome of Osun governorship judicial process.

We declare unequivocally that the ruling being so glaringly against tested facts and the law cannot stand. It is also clear that the ruling cannot in anyway stop the reality that Senator Ademola Adeleke fulfilled constitutional requirements to be Governor of Osun State.

We appeal to our numerous supporters and good people of Osun state to remain calm
This is another failed bid in the efforts of detractors and enemies of democracy. Senator Ademola Adeleke is not only qualified but by the grace of God will soon be sworn in as the legitimate Governor of Osun State.

APC clogging to the straw

Egbon engineerboat, that's their political gimmicks . Apc has loose this battle already. Distinguished senator Ademola Adeleke will be victorious in the appeal court and Supreme Court. The evidence is there for everyone to see.

TRAVESTY OF JUSTICE:

Despite the presence of WAEC in court to confirm Senator Ademola Adeleke sat of WASC Exams and presenting a CTC of his Certificate in court, in addition, the School Principal still testified that the school duly issued his Testimonial...

A compromised Judge in Bwari still rules after over 180 Days that he is not qualified to run for Governor...

THIS JUDGEMENT CANNOT STAND...!

OSUN APC DESPERATION AND BLACK MARKET JUDGMENT

Osun APC deserves a condolences messages, they are making every efforts to purchase a judgement against elected and declared by tribunal court as a lawful governor of Osun State, Senator Nurudeen Ademola Adeleke (Imole).

Before September 22 governorship election in Osun State, there was a subsisting judgement delivered by Justice Oladimeji @ Osogbo High Court which ruled that Senator Ademola Adeleke is qualified to contest the election, Wahab Raheem and Adam Abeeb who filed the case failed to appeal the judgement before election, the case was struck out completely.

Immediately after the tribunal judgment, Osun APC through their pseudo agents Wahab Raheem and Adam Abeeb took the same case that have been struck out in Osogbo high court to Abuja high court and successfully purchased a judgement to stop the moving train � of Senator Nurudeen Ademola Adeleke.

Did Abuja High Court have jurisdiction to hear this case that have been struck out in Osogbo high court?

In their thinking, they want to achieve 3 things "EMBARRASSMENT" " CONFUSION" and DISTRACTIONS.........., It will be difficult for any agents of darkness to achieve this against Senator Nurudeen Ademola Adeleke.

Whoever plan to block Ademola Adeleke or plan to Frustrate him, Almighty God will disgrace them publicly (AMEN).

APC too desperate

With Aregbesola bad performance in Osun APC wasn't fit to even present a candidate.

CityNGR:
APC too desperate

Infact they have all lost the battles. They already know that they have lost in the tribunal court. So they staged this one in order to distract the people. Not knowing that the people knows the man they votes for. As it stand , distinguished senator Ademola Adeleke is the authentic governor elect .

1. a similar high court has ruled on the matter and settled
2. the 180 days to hear such matters has passed

anyone that knows abuja very well will understand that a bwari court must be a mud house and # 50k is enough to bribe such judge

In an affidavit deposed to by the Deputy Registrar/Head of School Examination Department WAEC, Henry Sunday Adewunmi Osindeinde confirmed that Adeleke sat for the May/June 1981 at Ede Muslim High School, Yidi Road, Ede...
Osideinde stated that the examination centre number was 19645 while Adeleke’s number as a candidate in the centre was 149....
WAEC attached a copy of the results of all 221 candidates that sat for the May/June 1981 in the centre at Ede Muslim High School...
Osindeinde said in the affidavit that: “By virtue of my position as Deputy Registrar/Head of School Examination Department, I have read the enrolled order of this court (specifically orders iv, v and vi) dated 11th September 2018 directing and compelling the WAEC to depose to an affidavit confirming or denying the said orders contained in the said enrolled order and referred to in this paragraph And I wish to state as follows:
“The said candidate named in this suit known as Adeleke Ademola, with Centre Number 19645 and Candidate Number 149, indeed sat for the Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination in May/June 1981 conducted by the council at Ede Muslim High School situate at P. O. Box 6 Yidi Road, Ede, State of Osun.
“The copy of the result listing referred to by the court order as the ledger containing the results of all the candidates (001 – 221) who sat for the Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination in the said school is hereby certified, attached and marked: Exhibit WA1.."

APC are not serious.

Juncketting from court to court about.

No wonder their house is in disarray

BuhariIsBURIED:

Young girl

Nigerian election lawyers don hammer

APC should just accept defeat and move on already . Rigging does not work every time.

Lol but the one of last week can stand abi

On Sen. ADELEKE:
The judgment is purely a script that was acted out... It will not stand the true test of justice in any court of law!!!
The judge ignored many evidence that were tendered before it as exhibits that Senator Ademola Adeleke does not know anything about the forgery matter... And WAEC as the only authorised body by law to issue a WASCE Certificate has come out to show to the world that Ademola Adeleke has a result and the copy of the authentic result was issued to the public(alongside a press release)... And WAEC also came to that same court to testify too.
Furthermore, last year the court of appeal upheld the eligibility of Senator Ademola Adeleke to contest the gubernatorial election of Osun state in 2018. Again, the just concluded Election Petition Tribunal Court of Osun gubernatorial election-2018 also upheld the eligibility of Senator Ademola Adeleke to contest the gubernatorial election too.
Even by virtue of the provisions of section 177(a-d) of the Constitution of Federal Republic of Nigeria(with particular reference to subsection -'d' of the above reference), Senator Ademola Adeleke is evidently qualified.
This newly conjured judgment is an absolute miscarriage of justice with a deliberate attempt to mislead the public, discredit the eligibility of Senator Ademola Adeleke and concoct a false mandate on Gboyega Oyetola.
We have done the needful by heading straight to Court of Appeal and also ask for a stay of judgment in this regard too.
Tell our people to calm down because there is no iota of reason to panic or lose any sleep over this matter. WE WILL WIN AGAIN AT THE COURT OF APPEAL... WE ARE BRINGING THE MANDATE HOME SOON!!!
Aluta Continua, Victoria Ascerta!!

APC zombies una continue hooo.

Una eyes go soon clear las las
