Adeleke and his immediate predecessor, Adegboyega Oyetola will on March 24 know their fates in the dispute over the July 16 governorship election.
The Court of Appeal in Abuja on Thursday announced that judgment in the legal battle would be handed down for the two warring parties.

The Court had on March 14 reserved judgments in three appeals and a cross-appeal filed on the dispute over the governorship election.

A 3- man panel of Justices of the court led by Justice Mohammed Shuaibu, after taking the final arguments from lawyers to the parties had announced that Adeleke and Oyetola would be informed when the judgments are ready.

DAILY POST was, however, reliably informed that the make or mar judgment would be delivered on March 24.

A notice to that effect stumbled upon, specifically indicated that the verdict would be presented by 12 noon.

The substantive appeals, filed by Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke, his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), are against the January 27 judgment of the Osun State Governorship Election Tribunal, which voided Adeleke’s victory at the July 16, 2022 election.

The cross-appeal, jointly filed by the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its candidate in the election, Adegboyega Oyetola, is against a portion of the tribunal’s judgment.

At the time of this report, DAILY POST gathered that chieftains of PDP and APC as well as associates, friends and sympathisers of the two parties have arrived in Abuja to witness the delivery of the judgment.

Aside the fact am pro apc,I wish adeleke should win cos he has started well and let the election by conducted 100 times be would still win

Ademola Adeleke's destiny whether to remain a Governor, and that of Gboyega Oyetola whether to return as Governor, hinges closer to being made or marred tomorrow.

The people's governor will govern Osun state for 8 years...

Osun civil servants' most fervent prayers, since this judgement was reserved by Court, has been that may the affliction of APC Governor in Oyetola never befall them again.

Adeleke has a bad case.

Adeleke can only win on technical ground. INEC certify true copy of BVAS accreditation issued to Oyetola and not withdraw back by INEC is a deadly blow to Adeleke.

U see dat cross appeal by the APC? It's going to hit him like stray bullet. The judges erred by not making a consequential pronouncement on the issue of forgery after unanimously agreeing that forgery was established.

No.see,he forged but even without forging he was qualified

Make dm leave Adeleke...

Exactly the point. So isn't there supposed to be a consequence for forgery? Isn't that disqualification?

Secondly, if the appeal court agree to the validity of the CTC of BVAS issued to oyetola upon which their case of over voting was proven, it's finished for adeleke.

Because, the tribunal judges all agreed there was forgery...that's a big one

As for overvoting...I think INEC coming-in has helped PDP's appeal

I want them to nail him with the forgery case.

Adeleke is gone for good and he too knew it.
What is good for the gander should be good for the goose. A case of David Lyon of Bayelsa.

Supreme Court is the highest in the land. And has final Say. So if Anybody dissatisfied with Appeal Court judgwment on the 24th, They are free to proceed and head to Supreme Court.

Appeal court is the last decision court for governorship petitions as amended in the new electoral act only presidential petitions can get to supreme Court.

. I share the same opinion with Femi Falana SAN that it will be difficult to upturne the majority judgement of the TB tomorrow. As for the appeals of of Adeleke INEC and PDP , they are frivolous and will be struck out for lacking meris. It is also worrisome that the two judgements upheld forgery claimed by Oyetola and APC yet went ahead to look for a ground to sustain the qualification of Adeleke .That conclusion is alien to our jurisprudence.In my opinion it is 100 % in favour APC and Oyetola.

Supreme Court never said he didn't forged, they only agreed that he's qualified with other documents. He can still be nailed

. How will it affect TINUBU? Is Tinubu INEC? The INEC reports too are sacrosant!
