OSUN TRIBUNAL DISBANDMENT: A TREAT TO DEMOCRACY

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leadership in the South West Zone under the chairmanship of Dr. Eddy Olafeso has condemned the disbandment of Osun State Election Petition Tribunal.

The Election Petition Panel has been set up to hear the Petition filed by the PDP's candidate in the September 22 governorship election, Sen. Ademola Adeleke who was brazenly robbed of people's mandate to govern them for the period of four years.

Having sensed waterloo at the constituted Tribunal with persons of impeccable characters, who were prepared for the assignment without any sign of compromise, the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in its characteristic manner, has influenced the disbandment of the panel.

This act is obviously condemnable, unwarranted and unacceptable, if Nigeria's nascent democracy is to be sustained. The Judiciary which remains the last hope of common men must not be allowed to be tampered with, if the will of Osun people in the September 22 governorship election is to be supported.

It must be reiterated that the ruling APC, which temporarily stole Osun people's mandate reposed in Sen. Adeleke on September 22, had been running helter-sketer to subvert the cause of justice in the PDP's suit, praying to declare its candidate the lawful winner of the poll.

The unsolicited disbandment is indeed a threat, an assault and attempt to manipulate the process of law to reinstate the people's mandate into the helm of affairs in Osun state.

The critical stakeholders of Nigerian Democracy across the globe are hereby implored to wade in the matter to forestall masses revolution if the cause of justice over Osun Election Petition Tribunal is manipulated.

Rev. Bunmi Jenyo,
Zonal Secretary,
PDP South West Zone.
