This is the stage 2 of the litigation. Judgement must be given before May 20 in line with the Nigerian constitution. If it later reaches stage 3 at the Supreme court judgement must be given before July 20 .

Osun guber: Appeal Court fixes April 24 for hearing

The Court of Appeal in Abuja has scheduled hearing for April 24 in the appeals filed by the Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola, and his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) against the March 22, 2019 by the Osun State Governorship Election Tribunal.
Information about the hearing date is contained in notices sent to parties by the court’s Registry, a copy of which newsmen sighted on Monday in Abuja.
The tribunal, in a split decision of two-to-one, voided the victory of Oyetola and the APC in the election held on September 22, 2018, but concluded with a rerun on September 27, 2018.
Two members of the tribunal’s three-member panel upheld the petition filed by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its candidate Senator Ademola Adeleke against the outcome of election, while its chairman dismissed it for being unmeritorious.
Justices Peter Obiorah and Adegboye Gbolagunte gave the majority decision, which replaced Oyetola and APC with Adeleke and PDP as winners of the election.
The tribunal Chairman, Justice Muhammad Sirajo, in his dissenting judgment/minority decision, held otherwise.
He dismissed the petition by Adeleke and PDP on the grounds that the petitioners failed to prove their claims.
In the separate notices of appeal they filed against the tribunal’s majority judgment, Oyetola and the APC ripped the judgment apart, arguing that “it is perverse, replete with contradictions and against the weight of evidence.”
The want the Court of Appeal to uphold their appeals, set aside the majority judgment and dismiss the October 16, 2018 petition by Adeleke and the PDP.
Oyetola and the APC said they were contesting the entire majority judgment, except where it held that it lacked jurisdiction to set aside the INEC Guidelines used for the election; that the allegation of over voting was not proved; that the petitioners did not prove voided votes, and other parts of the judgment where it agreed with their arguments.
They queried the validity of the judgment, which was authored and delivered by Justice Obiorah, who they noted, did not participate in all the sittings of the tribunal during trial.
The appellants are of the view that the entire of the majority judgment is a nullity, because it was written and delivered by Justice Obiorah “who did not participate in all the proceedings of the tribunal and who was not present when all the witnesses gave evidence.”
They noted that Justice Obiorah was absent on February 6, 2019 when the respondents witnesses (RWs) 12 and 13 – Ayoola Soji and Oladejo Kazeem – testified and tendered exhibits, which the tribunal admitted in evidence.
The appellants are contending that, having not attended the tribunal’s siting on February 6, 2019, Justice Obiorah did not see the two witnesses and was unable to examine their demeanour, as required, and therefore, it was unlawful for the judge to have authored a judgment in which he reviewed the evidence given by the witnesses.
In the notice of appeal filed for Oyetola by his lawyer, Wole Olanipekun (SAN), it was argued that: “The writing of and or the participation of the Honourable Justice P. C. Obiorah in the writing of the judgment of the lower tribunal of 22nd March 2019 and delivery of same, vitiates the entire judgment.”
Oyetola and the APC faulted the decision of the tribunal, in the majority judgment, to declare the rerun election unlawful and proceeded to set it aside.
They also faulted the tribunal’s finding that the respondents did not deny the claim by the petitions, through PW74, that the Returning Officer cancelled election in the seven polling units and ordered a rerun.
The appellants said: “The first and third respondents (INEC and APC), in their pleadings, did not admit that it was the Returning Officer that cancelled the result of the election in the seven polling units, but rather, that it was the 1st respondent that cancelled the election in the seven units as distinct from the units’ results.
“Indeed, as pleaded at paragraphs 24, 25, 27 and 29 of the petition, it was the 1st respondent that cancelled the election in the seven units for the reasons alleged by the petitioners.
“The tribunal ought to have held the petitioners bound by their pleadings that it was the 1st respondent that cancelled the election in the units and the fact that the 3rd respondent also pleaded that it was the 1sy respondent that cancelled the election in the units.”
They argued that even if it was any of the electoral officials that announced the cancellation and rerun election, in law, they acted as INEC’s agents of the first respondent (INEC).
The appellants noted that the petitioners did not only fail to tender results from the seven polling units to support their claim that election actually held in the polling units and the results were cancelled; they also failed to exhibit the votes scored by the parties that participated in the election, if actually their was an election.
Oyetayo and APC argued that, rather than holding against the petitioners, for not supplying the necessary evidence, the tribunal wrongly relied on the evidence of PW74, which it had earlier expunged from the record for being hearsay.
They argued that, in the absence of vital evidence, “the tribunal ought to have held that the petitioners did not make out the case that there was any election in the seven polling units and that the Returning Officer cancelled the results of the election in the seven units.”
They argued that even if it was any of the electoral officials that announced the cancellation and rerun election, in law, they acted as INEC’s agents of the first respondent (INEC).

The management of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, has described the poisoning of its dam by suspected hoodlums as an act of genocide against members of the institution.

Recalls that some aggrieved indigenes of Ile-Ife, who claimed ownership of some portions of the university land, had on April 3 invaded the university and allegedly poisoned the institution’s dam with a chemical.

Mr Abiodun Olanrewaju, the university’s Public Relation Officer, who conducted journalists round the disputed land and the dam within the school’s premises, on Wednesday, said the poisoning of the dam was genocidal.

Olanrewaju said the chemical used in poisoning the dam, which was the only source of water for the university, killed all the aquatic animals in it.

He, however, said that the dam had been treated and was now safe to drink.

“The act is condemnable and wicked.

“How can some group of people poison the only source of the dam where the over 36,000-strong university population was drinking from. “The act is genocidal and wicked. “

They came through the Parakin area of the town to poison the dam but God was so good to us that immediately the dam was poisoned, rain fell for two days which washed the poisonous chemical away.

“We have treated the water and laboratory test had been done on it and now it is very safe to drink”, Olanrewaju said. Olanrewaju also said the disputed land belongs to the Federal Government, adding that the university was not ready to concede it to anybody.

According to him, the land which is about 162 hectares was given to the university in the 60s by the then Ooni of Ife, Oba Adesoji Aderemi.

He said the land grabbers had started selling some portions of land to the people while construction workers working on the proposed OAU International Secondary school on the land were chased away with cutlasses and other dangerous weapons by the hoodlums.

Olanrewaju said three blocks of hostels built for students on the said land were abandoned due to attacks by the hoodlums.

“For the safety of our children in the university, the vice-chancellor instructed us not to allocate any of 360 rooms newly built hostel to them. ” The vice-chancellor has also instructed our security men not to retaliate but it is not possible for anyone to invade Federal Government land for personal gain because the land is gazetted.

“We have informed the police and other security agencies and we believe they will act accordingly. “We have also informed the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, and Ife Development Board, ”Olanrewaju said.

He, however, said that anyone who was ready to use any portion of the land for the generality of the people and not for personal gain could approach the university for consideration.

Someone once said and I see now; that Atiku is a very desperate man. This statement was long before elections, and this is someone who once worked closely with him, so he knows. The problem with a desperate man is that he doesn't mind the sky falling,even if he knows it will fall on all including himself and his followers.

How else do you explain these posters adorning FCT except that he is intentional in his bid to disrupt the peace of the country? If I can't govern Nigeria, then it must become ungovernable right?

Post election posters saying of Atiku, “the real and the right”. The real what? The real loser it must be, cause it can't be saying the real President. The right? The right man to help waste his money, definitely not the right man for the Villa. This is not only tasteless and tactless, it is knocking the door of treason.

Hello!

For background, I was born to a Igbo father and a black American mother. I grew up in the U.S., and because my father didn't teach me anything about Nigeria, for the first part of my life I didn't even know I belonged to another culture. As I got a bit older I would question him about things pertaining to Nigeria; his response was "that's not important" or "don't ask such questions, focus on your book instead". At some point I asked him if he spoke another language. He confirmed that he did, but when I asked him to teach me he told me "no one speaks it, instead we just use English" and I accepted that answer.

I had a revelation one day in middle school when eating lunch with one of my friends. Like me she was born in the U.S., but had Chinese parents. We had gone to school together for nearly 10 years, so I was shocked when one day she picked up a phone call from her grandmother and spoke to her in fluent Chinese. When I questioned her on how she learned, she told me that her parents had been teaching her. That way, if she ever goes to China she won't struggle to communicate with her people, and if she chooses not to go she'll at least be able to talk with her grandparents that don't know English.

This impassioned me and that evening when my father came home from work I begged him to teach me Igbo, even though "no one speaks it". He agreed and taught me simple phrases like "kedu", "afa m bu", and "o di mma". The thing is, which it was nice to know these things I could not actually use them to communicate. I didn't understand Igbo grammar and my vocabulary was limited to basic greetings. When I began asking him the name of household items and chores he became angry with me. He told me I was focusing on Igbo and not my books (even though my grades were great), and that he'll punish me if I keep asking so I stopped.

Getting more so to the point, I'm now a graduate student in my early 20's. While I have tried my best to study Igbo, I have met many frustrations that have led me to investigate Hausa and Yoruba. At this point, it simply pains me that when I meet people from my country, I have no means of communicating with people from my country besides English. I plan on moving to Nigeria in the not-so-distant future, and when I go I want to be fluent is something.

Between the three major languages, the arguments I have for each are:

Igbo
As an Igbo person, it makes sense for me to prioritize my language. I don't want to just sit there confused and lost during family gatherings, I also want to be able to speak to my grandparents who don't understand English well. That's really the only positives of Igbo though, even excluding the past experiences mention above, I've over all become disheartened by the idea of learning the language for a variety of reasons.

Yoruba
One thing I like about Yoruba language is that Yoruba people seem to have put a lot of effort into developing it and teaching it. Most Nigerians I've met in the U.S. that speak a Nigerian language speak Yoruba, despite the fact that I've met mostly Igbo people. In addition, of Nigerians I've met also born in the U.S., only the Yoruba's are able to speak their language. Despite that, my family roots are in the South East. I may be able to speak with more Nigerians by learning Yoruba, but I'll still be disconnected from my family. Yoruba people might seem to have less of a "complex" when it comes to their language than Igbo people, but I have observed it's still there.

Hausa
I've only ever met one Hausa family in the U.S., but from what I've observed in Nigeria they seem to practice their language the most. In addition, it seems like Hausa is a lingua franca for most of the country, and many non-Hausas are fluent in the language. Hausa is one of the few sources I can find unadulterated practice of the language. It's also West Africa's most spoken indigenous languages. It still has the same problems a Yoruba though when it comes to connecting with my family. I also don't know how realistic it is to expect to live in the Northern Part of Nigeria as I have limited experience there.

Like I said, I want to move to Nigeria at some point and that's where I want to raise a family and start a career. When I have children I don't want them to grow up like me. I want them to be connected to their people and be able to communicate with them on a level no other group in the world can. I can tell my children to love and embrace African culture and languages when I know none myself.

I decided to come here for insight from other Nigerians as I have no one to talk to about this in real life. Given everything I've said what do you think I should do? At the end of the day I just want a sense connectivity and belonging among my people. I want to put my efforts into learning a language its speakers wholly embrace so I can pass it on to my children.

Also, I don't intend for this to be tribalistic at all. I would also appreciate if responses avoided tribalistic sentiments.

Came back this morning from church only to discover that my cable subscription has expired, so i tuned to the only available channel NTA.

I haven't watched NTA for God knows how long now, i was totally disappointed with what was showing on my tv screen, the picture quality and lighting was very poor, audio quality was awful. It was as if i was teleported by to the 1970s or something.

We are in the 21st century for God sake, what will it cost the management of NTA to overhaul the stations. I believe they get budgets annually running into billions. Privately owned and managed tv stations like Channels, Tvc, Arise, Silverbird, AIT, etc are miles ahead of a supposedly more financed NTA. And what's with the archaic dirty brown colour combination, can't the colours of the station be changed to something more appealing and brighter? Or do we need a two- third majority of the national assembly to rebrand NTA.

For over 20 years ministers come and go and no one thought it wise to rebrand the station, if it involves sacking some persons to get the station running let the needful be done. NTA is supposed to be a national brand and pride, but what we currently have today is nothing to write home about.

I couldn't spare 3 minutes to watch the station today because it was a torture to the eyes and sense of good taste.
Let the appropriate persons sit up and save the only national tv we have as at today.

. I share your opinion. Apart from poor audio and visual quality, there programming is horrible.Apart from the news no entertainment at all.Something must be done to make NTA appealing again

The 1st-3rd Respondents in Appeal No. CA/AK/81/2019 and CA/AK/81/2019 decided on 06/04/2019 have taken note of the news making the rounds that the Akure Division of The Court of Appeal therein affirmed that Sen. Nurudeen Adeleke was eligible to contest the recently held gubernatorial elections in OSUN State. The Court of Appeal made no such pronouncement.
The Appeal bordered on whether the Federal High Court sitting at Osogbo was right to have dismissed the preliminary objection raised by Sen. Nurudeen Adeleke in the Suit challenging his eligibility. It was his contention that the Suit was not filed within 14 days of the Party Primaries nominating him. He contends s.285(9) Constitution of The Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended by the 4th Alteration Act was not complied with. He maintained that stance even in the face of s.31(5) of the Electoral Act 2010(as amended) which allowed “any person“ to file a Suit in challenge eligibility of a candidate who seeks elective office to govern others.
The Court of Appeal saw the matter differently. The Court allowed the Appeal by Sen. Nurudeen Adeleke and struck out the Suit before the Federal High Court sitting at Osogbo. It certainly made no pronouncements whatsoever on the eligibility or otherwise of Sen. Nurudeen Adeleke.
For a fact, the court of Appeal did not consider the merit of the substantive case, it only decided the Preliminary Objection which was overruled by the trial court. The substantive suit pending at the Federal High Court was not heard at all.
The 1st-3rd Respondents feel strongly about the Court of Appeal, Akure Division decision as it is a Constitutional matter with critical bearing on the Rule of Law and the time hallowed doctrine of Separation of Powers that has overtime made for stability in sustainable democracies the world over. It is the strong view of the 1st-3rd Respondents that no matter how seemingly absurd a piece of legislation is it remains within the exclusive province of the Lawmaker to amend same. Since it is a constitutional matter, the 1st-3rd Respondents Will take further steps necessary.
The 1st-3rd Respondents urge on all and sundry to disregard the gross, wanton and deliberate distortion and misrepresentation of the views of the Noble Bench of The Court of Appeal, Akure as expressed in the said Judgment. Sadly, but not unexpectedly, the pain and embarrassment the said political and mischevious misrepresentation might probably have occasioned to their Lordships is quite regrettable. I am sure Certified True Copy of the judgement is available at Court of Appeal Akure Division awaiting verification by diligent journalists.

Atiku’s petition: INEC, APC face Thursday deadline to respond

The Independent National Electoral Commission and the All Progressives Congress have till Thursday to file their responses to the election petition jointly filed by the Peoples Democratic Party and its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, challenging the outcome of the February 23 presidential election, SUNDAY PUNCH has learnt.

Due to the fact that the petition was served on him late, President Muhammadu Buhari, who is the candidate of the APC, has till at least April 16 to respond to the petition.



Atiku and his party had, on March 18, 2019 filed the petition before the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal, challenging the declaration of Buhari and the APC as the winner of the election.

The petitioners claimed that contrary to INEC’s declaration, the PDP’s candidate was the valid winner of the election.

INEC, Buhari and APC are the first to the third respondents to the petition, respectively.

SUNDAY PUNCH found out that as of Friday, none of the three respondents had filed their responses to the petition.

Paragraph 10(2) of the Electoral Act, 2010 provides for a period of not more than 21 days within which a respondent must reply to an election petition from the date of being served with it.

The said Paragraph 10(2) provides, “The non-filling of a memorandum of appearance shall not bar the respondent from defending the election petition if the respondent files his reply to the election petition in the Registry within a reasonable time, but, in any case, not later than twenty-one (21) days from the receipt of the election petition.”

The petitioners served the petition on INEC and APC on March 22, but was unable to serve same on Buhari until they were able to obtain a March 27 order of the Court of Appeal in Abuja permitting them to serve the President through substituted means.



The petitioners had, in an affidavit filed in support of their ex parte application, cited the protocols and security hurdles at the Presidential Villa as the reasons for their inability to serve Buhari with the petition personally.

Ruling on the application, which it said was meritorious, the Justice Abdu Aboki-led three-man bench of the Court of Appeal, Abuja, on March 27, granted the order permitting them to serve Buhari through APC’s national secretariat.

By our correspondent’s calculation, the 21 days granted to INEC and the APC to respond, from March 22 when they were served with the petition, would expire on April 11.

Asked when the APC would file its reply to the petition, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria in the party’s legal team, who sought not to be named, confirmed that they had Thursday deadline to file their response.

“We are filing our reply in the new week because our 21 days window expires in the new week,” the SAN said.

Speaking with SUNDAY PUNCH, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr Paul Ananaba, confirmed that a respondent had 21 days to reply to an election petition.

Ananaba, who has handled a number of election petition cases, said, “The respondent has 21 days to file a response. But there is no extension of time once the respondent fails to file a reply.

“The registry of an election petitions tribunal opens on Saturdays and Sundays; so, there is no excuse for anyone not to meet the time limit.”

Asked what the implication of non-filing of a reply within time, the SAN said, “It simply means the respondent has no defence.”

There are now four petitions challenging APC’s victory at the presidential poll.

All necessary papers would need to be exchanged between parties to a particular petition before hearing could begin in respect of the petition.

Another lawyer, Mr Tunde Falola, said, “A respondent, who does not file his reply to the petition within time has no defence to the petition and he would be deemed to have accepted those allegations contained in the petition.”

He also confirmed that Paragraph 10(2) of the Electoral Act provides for 21 days for a respondent who does not file a memorandum of appearance, to file a reply to the petition.

According to him, non-filing of a memorandum of appearance implies that the respondent “intends to dispute or challenge the jurisdiction of the tribunal to hear the petition in the first place.”

You go de alright las las.This judgment from the appeal court renders the bwari kangaroo judgement null and void.BTW Adeleke has not been convicted by any court in Nigeria for forgery.

The appeal court judgment clearly stated that Adeleke was educated up to secondary school certificate level and thus is eligible to run for Governor

. The Akure appeal court struck Olagoke case out for the following reasons....one. it was filed after the fourteen days stipulated on the law...two. the Akure appeal court has no jurisdiction to hear the matter...Are they not technical grounds..... The Bwari judgement is still being appealed in Abuja appeal court.Judgement later.....That is the situation for now...no sting attached.

Osun : Ademola Adeleke is Qualified to Contest for Governorship-Court of Appeal

The controversy over the eligibility of Senator Ademola Adeleke to contest the Osun governorship election has been put to rest as an Akure Federal Court of Appeal has by 11 AM today reaffirmed his qualification and eligibility to contest the office.

The Akure Court of Appeal dismissed an appeal against the judgement of Osogbo High court which had confirmed the eligibility of Senator Ademola Adeleke to contest for the governorship of Osun state.The Osogbo High Court had earlier ruled that Senator Adeleke is qualified to contest for the governorship having been educated up to secondary school level.

The petitioners however proceeded to appeal against the ruling ,insisting that the Senator is not qualified and therefore Dr Akin Ogunbiyi who is the second runner up at the governorship primary should be declared the winner of the primary.

The Akure Appeal court in its ruling dismissed the appeal on three grounds ,affirming the judgement of the lower court that confirmed the eligibility of Senator Adeleke.

The first ground was that the court has no jurisdiction to hear the case .The second was that the petitioner has no locus standi to file the case and third was that the matter was brought to court outside the stipulated 14 days after the conduct of the primary.

. For the record: The appeal court decided on Olagoke case agianst Adeleke eligibility. Osogbo high court did not consider forgery of results and whether Adeleke completed secondary school.It only considered whether Adeleke entered secondary school or not.....The Akure appeal court struck it out on technical ground. However Abuja high court examined forgery issue and completion of secondary school...In the Abuja high court judgment. Adeleke was found ineligible for the election....Appeal court and supreme courts will decide on it. Additionally the tribunal matter is still 50 50 the appeal and supreme will decide on it.....

Following the judgement of a Federal High Court in Abuja on Tuesday, where it held that the nomination of Senator Ademola Adeleke as candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the September 2018 Governorship Election in Osun State was null and void, legal practitioners have spoken on the implications of the verdict.
The judgment as delivered by Justice Othman Musa was premised on the fact that Adeleke does not possess the minimum educational qualification (Secondary School Certificate) prescribed in Section 177 of the 1999 Constitution, as amended and that the result attached to the form CF001 he used to secure clearance from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) was fake.
The case was filed by the duo of Wahab Raheem and Adam Habeeb who are chieftains of the All Progressives Congress in Osun.
Justice Musa stressed that whereas the court found that Adeleke entered secondary school in 1976, there was no record to show that the PDP’s flag-bearer actually graduated, as his name was not found in the school’s register from 1980.
It stressed that the result he produced was found to be different from the one presented to the court by the principal of Ede Muslim High School, Ede, Osun State, where Adeleke purportedly graduated.
In another development, witnesses brought before the Federal High Court in Abuja on Wednesday told the court that the senator did not sit for the National Examination Council Examinations in 2017 as he claimed.
The witnesses include, Emmanuel Odesola and Adigun Akintayo who acted as supervisors and invigilators during the said exams in Ojo-Aro Community Grammar School.
Odesola who was the third prosecution witness said, though it was his first time of being in the school he didn’t see the senator in the examination hall.
The witnesses said they only saw one Sikiru Adeleke (the Senator’s brother) who is listed as 2nd respondent in the examination hall.
Apart from the case of which the judgement had been delivered, Ademola Adeleke and Sikiru Adeleke were accused of fraudulently, through impersonation registered as students of Ojo-Aro Community Grammar School, Ojo-Aro, Osun State to enable them sit for the NECO exam in 2017.
Reacting to the court verdict, a human right advocate, Barrister Kayode Adebisi said, by the judgement of the court, in the eyes of the law, the PDP did not field a candidate for the election, noting that it was not possible for the PDP to be declared victorious in an election it did not participate in.
He said: “It’s a pre-election matter and it boils down on the fact that the PDP presented an unqualified candidate for the election. What the PDP candidate did was against the Electoral Act 2010 as amended. Section 139 to be precise states that before you contest an election, you need to sign an oath that the information you are giving is true to the best of the person’s knowledge. If it is now found out that you have lied, like that of Adeleke the court can disqualify such candidate.
“However, in the eyes of the law, the PDP had no candidate for the gubernatorial election. In an election the victory belongs to the party and not the individual. The laws of the land do not recognize independent candidacy. Therefore, the party has not followed due process in producing a candidate for that election and it cannot claim any victory.
He said the legal team of Governor Gboyega Oyetola at the tribunal could capitalize on this by presenting this with valid evidence as part of the case before the Court of Appeal.
A lawyer, Yomi Obaditan believes that the judge must have looked at the evidence from both sides before giving his judgement, adding that the last may not have been heard of the case.
He said, the implications of the judgement is that it might put a paid to his gubernatorial ambition if it ends this way at the Supreme Court, even if the election tribunal’s judgement is upheld at the apex court .
He said: “This is what is called a pre-election matter. According to the judgement, Adeleke was unfit to have contested the election as stated in Section 177 of the Nigerian Constitution 1999. It spelt out qualification of candidates contesting elective positions.
“When you look at the nitty-gritty of the law on the allegation, the implication is that Adeleke forged his certificate and it is a criminal issue and doesn’t have to do with his disqualification. The question before us is did Adeleke acquired secondary education? If yes, the Court of Appeal will annul the High Court judgement”, he said.

. What the constitution says on this matter is clear. I agree with submission of the lawyers here.There is a difference between Faleke vrs APC in Kogi and Adeleke vrs PDP in Osun
In the case of Kogi, Audu died before he was announced governor Thus the man who came second in APC primary became governor.Faleke lost in Appeal and Supreme court.It was post election matter.In the case of Adeleke vrs PDP in Osun. PDP fielded an unqualified candidate for the election.it is a pre election matter.So it means they did not deliberately contest in the election. So APC may have their way eventually. That is what is in the electoral act and the constitution....

Did he complete secondary school education now? Did he attache original or fake result to his INEC form? Another Salisu Buhari case in Nigeria....Toronto certificate

FRESH TROUBLE For Adeleke Again As He Faces Another Heavy Allegation That Might Cost Him Him latest victory

Osun State Governor-Elect, Senator Adeleke has come under fire again this time from the National Examination Council (NECO). The Federal High Court in Abuja heard of the accusation from NECO and has swung into action. Will his victory be short-lived?


The Ede-born senator and four others were tried for their alleged involvement in examination malpractices. Two supervisors, Emmanuel Odesola and Adigun Akintayo were called as witnesses who invigilated during the examination in Ojo-Aro Community Grammar School in Osun State were called as witnesses
The prosecution called two witnesses – – who said they acted as supervisor and invigilator during the June/July 2017 NECO examination in Ojo-Aro Community Grammar School, Ojo-Aro, Osun State. They both said they only saw Sikiru Adeleke (the Senator’s brother), who is listed as the 2nd respondent, in the examination hall.


Senator Adeleke, Sikiru Adeleke (who is said to be the senator’s relative), Alhaji Aregbesola Mufutau (the school principal), Gbadamosi Thomas Ojo (registrar) and Dare Samuel Olutope (teacher) were arraigned in November last year. Sikiru and Ademola were accused of impersonation and fraud for posing as students to sit for the National Examinations Council (NECO) examination of June/July 2017.


The third prosecution witness, Odesola testified that he knew Adeleke and 3 other defendants except one and confessed that the school didn’t give him the school album for easy identification and matching of the faces and their names claiming that the students were already identified by the Registrar before entering the exam hall.
He added saying that he never saw the Senator in the examination hall. He added that about 4 elderly candidates were seen. Prosecution lawyer Simon Lough later tender, through Odesola, some documents, including one answer sheet, numbered 057, with the name: Ademola Adeleke written on it.


Under cross-examination by lawyers to the defendants, among whom were Alex Izinyon (SAN), and Nathaniel Oke (SAN), the witness said he did not know the handwriting of the defendants and could not tell who wrote on the examination sheet tendered in court.


On further cross-examination, the witness said he did not check whether Sikiru Adeleke has examination number allocated to him by NECO. Eventually, there waere no objections to the prosecution lawyer’s application by the Lawyers to the defendants following which Justice Inyang Ekwo adjourned to June 10 and 11 for the continuation of trial

Adeleke’s nullification: Judgment cannot stand test of time – SANs

By . | Published Date Apr 3, 2019 13:19 PM-Daily Trust

Two Senior Advocates of Nigeria, (SAN) have said that the FCT High Court judgment which nullified the nomination of Sen. Ademola Adeleke as the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the September 2018 Governorship Election in Osun, cannot stand the test of time.
Speaking with the News Agency of Nigeria, (NAN) on Wednesday in Abuja, Mr Isreal Olondare (SAN) said that the judgment was not a sound one because the law stipulated that a person aspiring to any political office must be educated up to school certificate level.

AD

The ruling cannot stand the test of time because during the trial, it was the prosecution that subpoenaed the West African Examination Council (WAEC) to come and tender the result of Adeleke in court.

“They tendered the result and it was confirmed that he wrote the exams not withstanding that maybe he failed the papers.

"The constitution of Nigeria says that any person aspiring to office must be educated up to school certificate level it didn’t say that the person should have grade one or so on.

“Since there is evidence that he was educated up to school certificate level, he is qualified to contest,” the senior lawyer contended.
Moreover, he questioned the legality of the FCT High Court having jurisdiction to try a matter that arose from Osun state.
On his part, Mr Nathaniel Oke (SAN), a counsel to Adeleke said that they were grossly dissatisfied with that judgment and would appeal it before the close of business on Wednesday.
“We are appealing against it and before today expires, we will file our notice of appeal against that judgement because we do not agree with any of the reasons given.
“We contended that our candidate having brought a certified true copy of the result of the examination he took in 1981 as ordered by the court with supportive affidavit, that in itself is sufficient to say that he is qualified.”
According to Oke, you don’t have to pass the exam of WAEC before you can be qualified, the moment you make an attempt, is suffices, which is the requirement of the law.
Justice Oathman Musa of an Abuja High Court, Bwari Area Council of Abuja on Tuesday, nullified the nomination Adeleke as candidate of the PDP in the Sept. 2018 Governorship Election in Osun State.
Justice Musa annulled Adeleke’s nomination on the grounds that Adeleke offended Section 177 of the 1999 Constitution as amended.
The section stipulates that candidates for the position of governor must be educated up to secondary school level.
According to Justice Musa, while the court’s findings show that Adeleke entered secondary school in 1976, there is no record to show that he actually graduated as his name is no longer seen in the school’s register from 1980.(NAN)

. I am not a politician so I am objective on every issue. Osogbo high court ruled that the case before the court was whether Adeleke entered secondary school or not .it was not a result issue.The court ruled that he entered secondary school in 1976.Result issue was not presented in court at all.The Abuja ruling was about whether he completed secondary school as required in the constitution or not and that of forgery of results. Abuja court ruled that he entered secondary school in 1976 but by 1980 his name disappeared on the school record possibly he was a drop out then.However he wrote WAEC in 1981 with just F9 in English language.He was absent on all other subjects.This was presented by WAEC at the court. The result Adeleke used in his INEC form is different completely because it was doctored by he principal having been influenced by Adeleke family in Ede.The principal confessed.It will be of interest that Adeleke was impersonated in the same school during last year NECO in connivance vwith the principal.So the court was right by deciding that Adeleke did not have O level result and neither did he complete secondary school.Adeleke is playing for his foolishness and laziness. It is a lesson for all of us Even if you have money make sure you do the right thing.There is always Tomorrow.

. Thank you for showing this .I have read it before now.The SANS expressed their opinion but the judgement gives an insight into what transpired between Adeleke and the school he claimed he attended with forged results. The appeal court and possibly and hopefully Supreme court will now determine if a person who entered a school in 1976 but has no record by 1980 completed secondary school. The courts will also determine if forged results he used in his INEC form make him qualify to contest. In my opinion the two upper court will uphold the judgement of the lower court. Salisu Buhari s case and his Toronto certificate is a precedence.

. Was yesterday judgement not justified? The principal confessed how Adeleke was impersonated in order to have an o level result last year but all of them were caught.....What a disgrace to him and the entire Adeleke s family

Buhari went to a normal secondary school

After he finished from there, he entered what is now the Nigeria Defence Academy.

It is true I even saw a picture of those that finished with him in secondary school and the military college he later went to.
