Appeal Court Sacks All Osun State Senators, Reps And House Of Assembly Members by Titilayodeji13(m): 4:59am On Oct 11, 2014
Appeal Court Sacks All Osun State
Senators, Reps and House of
Assembly Members

… Says Akeju Not Eligible To
Conduct 2011 general elections

Oyewale Oyelola
The Court of Appeal sitting in Akure has
sacked all Osun Senators, House of
Representatives Members, House of
Assembly members who emerged winner
in the election conducted by controversial
Osun INEC Resident Electoral
Commissioner, Amb Rufus Akeju in 2011.
Justice M. I. Sheila who read the lead
judgement said Akeju was partisan,
according to evidence available to the
court and therefore not eligible to conduct
the 2011 Elections.
The Judge ruled that AKEJU ought not to
have presided over the elections in Osun
State as the INEC REC.
The appeal court therefore nullified all
elections conducted by INEC in Osun State
in 2011 and ordered for fresh elections are
expected into the all House of Assembly,
Senatorial and Federal House of
Representatives seats in Osun state.
The PDP in Osun State had contested the
propriety of Akeju, a former Personal
Assistant to APC National leader, Senator
Bola Tinubu conducting the
Osun State elections as INEC REC and
secured a Court Injunction restraining
Akeju from conducting the election.
The Electoral body contrary to court
ruling allowed Akeju to conduct 2011
general elections as Osun State Resident
Electoral Commissioner.
It would be recalled that INEC Chairman,
Prof Attahiru Jega ordered Akeju to
proceed on leave to allow other REC to
oversee the August 9 governorship
election won by Rauf Aregbesola of All
Progressives Congress.
Meanwhile, Osun State PDP has hailed the
judgment of the Appeal Court adding that
the party will also reclaim its stolen
mandate from Aregbesola.

At the court of Appeal today the court raised the issue of competence of the Notice of Appeal filed by INEC against the Injunction and struck out the Notice of Appeal for being incompetent while the appeal filed by the other party is still pending and will be heard on the 31st of October, 2014.

“There was no mention of any cancellation, removal or anything partaining to the tenure of those elected in 2011 election. It is therefore laughable that the same party who prayed for stay of proceedings will now go out to celebrate a phantom victory knowing fully well that the substantive matter is well and alive at the Federal High Court Osogbo.

“What is more, the import of today‘s rulling is clearly academic as the act upon which the injunction is based has been completed.”

Apc is worse than PDP when it comes to Electoral malpractice. Apc and pdp are like a virus, the only difference is that pdp is more viral and popular while Apc is a worst strand waiting to go into the general population.
