Supreme Court Fixes New Date To Deliver Osun Guber Polls Appeal (See Date) by CGMedia: 3:09am On Jun 05, 2019
The Supreme Court in Abuja will on Monday, June 10, 2019 deliver judgment in the separate appeals by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its candidate in the Osun governorship election, Senator Ademola Adeleke, against the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)

Igbere TV reports that Adeleke is challenging the victory of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its candidate, Governor Gboyega Oyetola, in the 2018 Osun State governorship election.

Igbere TV recalls that the Appeal Court had earlier ruled in favour of Governor Oyetola, after he had appealed the first judgement of the Election Petitions Tribunal, which ruled in favour of Senator Adeleke.

Recall that INEC had declared Oyetola and the APC the winner of the Osun State governorship election on the basis of the cumulative results of the September 22, 2018 main election and the September 27, 2018 supplementary poll.

Earlier on May 30, the PDP had won an appeal of the April 2 judgement by Justice Othman Musa of the FCT High Court, Bwari, which voided Adeleke’s candidacy for the election on the grounds that he was not qualified, having not possessed valid secondary school certificate.

The court had also declared Adeleke ineligible to contest the election on the grounds that he forged his secondary school credentials submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in 2018.

But upturning the judgment on Thursday, May 30, Justice Emmanuel Agim of the Appeal Court held that the suit, having failed to be filed within 14 days after Adeleke’s Form C.F001 was submitted to INEC or 14 days after his name was published as a candidate in the September 2018 election, the suit filed before the FCT High Court, by virtue of section 285 of the constitution had become statute-barred.

Justice Agim also held that the failure of the FCT High Court to deliver its verdict within 60 days of the filing of the suit had rendered the lower court’s judgment a nullity.

The Court also held the affidavit evidence of the West African Examination Council and result ledger attached to it showed that Adeleke was not a dropout but actually sat the May 1981 examination of the body at Muslim Grammar School, Ede.

Justice Agim held that by virtue of section 177 of the constitution, by merely taking the examination and without passing any paper, Adeleke was qualified to contest the governorship election.

He, therefore, faulted the claim that Adeleke forged the West African Examination Council (WAEC) certificate he presented to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to secure clearance for the gubernatorial election.

Please and please everybody in the house,it is not every news peddling on social media by these APC Facebook guys that we must copy or agree with immediately without doing our own findings... The news of the sudden change of the notice of supreme court hearing date is one of APC propaganda, there was nothing of such,it is a total falsehood peddling around by one Olayanju Africa Kolapo.I urge everyone in the house to disregard this fake news!
It is nothing but a deliberate cooked up lie!

The fact is that the Northern Strategists will prefer to sacrifice Ekiti state to PDP because of 2023 permutations and 2019 presidential election case.

Lol, you don't know our Supreme Court and you don't how appeal works generally.

If the Supreme Court is fully constituted, it would take a miracle for APC to win their case. Even in the US, about 70% of the appeals to the Supreme Court are upheld.

PDP appeal would stand, if you understand the technicalities of laws.

Lol, we didn't expect Fayose to win at the Supreme Court. The loopholes are in the Appeal Court ruling and Supreme Court would correct that.

The Tribunal is a court of record, so a judge doesn't need to sit throughout the proceeding before he qualifies to give lead judgment.

Just chill.
