Gold diggers. Live and let live. Allow the dancing governor drink water and drop cup.

GboyegaD:
What difference does this make though? Was there an election feaud? Is APC still disgruntled they lost the election? Or how does their candidature affects anything when there's a new government?

This is a very significant judgment that affects all the candidates of the party and not just Oyetola alone. If the party had lost this case, the candidacy of Tinubu and all other APC candidates would have been in serious jeopardy.

Cc penguin2, agboriotejoye, aiel123,I told you guys that oyetola will prevail easily at the appeal court.it is an easy case

True.this is simply an affirmation of the majority judgment in jegede vs aketi ors

DWJOBScom:
So the new case is on the letter to INEC...
Feed on lawyers

This is called campaign after election. Gboyega should save the little he had stolen for his retirement or he tries his luck after 4 years with his running mate

This is just like the game between Uruguay and Ghana yesterday.
Even after winning 2-0 Uruguay couldn't celebrate because it's just effort in futility

Very straight forward case. High court judges are scums

flejnr2:
Oyetola should go and rest, he is on a goose chase , the presidency is not happy with him and his cousin asiwaju so they can’t influence anything thru judiciary

Is that what they told you?

Do still think... you know... something can be done?

I hope so.

I hope the certificate case of Adeleke sails through. If not hmmmm..I smell a rat ooooooo... This case might turn in favour of APC if not well handled..

WAEC present the Original certificate oo...make sure Adeleke clear all his subjects with straight A's..

Brendaniel:
This man is fighting so many battles...

But for now, he has nothing to lose. So many abracadabra has happened in the past that led to the ouster of newly sworn in Governors, so guy man is just trying his luck.

Adeleke has some faint shadow over his acad qualifications and election, and nobody would just let those slide (not you or I), expecially if you think things could swing back in your favour no matter the odds. Anything is possible through Nigerian courts, you know.

i trust..... He will do justice to it

APC have closed their case.

The tribunal adjourned till Dec 20 for Adeleke to open his defence.

For today, INEC tendered the original file Adeleke submitted in 2018. Both sides agreed to it but PDP's counsel objected but it will be in his written address because of time. His objection was that what was needed that was blurred were only two documents and hnot the whole file.

Objection was noted but will be permitted at the final address.... The file was placed in evidence as FILE D.

The case is nearing its close as judgement must be before January 29 next year.

ok. Thanks for the update

ok. Thanks for the update

To add, APC is premising mainly on this certificate issue.

They brought only two out of 300 witnesses for the over-voting allegations. When INEC opens their defence, we will know more.

This Certificate saga is where APC & Oyetola intends to do the maximum damage.

Always welcome.

Osun Tribunal Admits Adeleke's Certificates as Exhibits.
-- As Oyetola, APC Close Case

The Osun State Election Petition Tribunal on Saturday admitted in evidence the file with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) containing the secondary school certificate and testimonial of Governor Ademola Adeleke of the State.

This is just as the Petitioners, Mr. Adegboyega Oyetola and the All Progressives Congress (APC), closed the prosecution of the matter, leaving respondents to state their defence.

The admission of the documents followed the appearance of INEC representative, Mrs. Joan Arabs, who brought Adeleke's original files containing the certificate he submitted to the Commission in 2018.

It will be recalled that during the last sitting of the panel, the Commission had submitted blank document as the secondary school certificate of the governor, a situation that compelled the panel to order that the original file be brought, and to threaten to invoke Coercive Power if it fails to do so.

At the resumed hearing of the petition on Saturday, Counsel for Oyetola, Chief Lateef Fagbemi (SAN), said the hearing for the day was basically meant for the appearance of INEC representative to produce the Adeleke's file in line with the court order.

Counsel for INEC, in his response, said that INEC representative was already in court with the files containing a clearer and legible certificate and testimonial in question, saying he would be willing to apply for the return of the documents to INEC, when the tribunal is done looking at it.

After the production of the documents, the tribunal, while discharging the INEC official, said, "You can now go if you wish to. No policeman will accost you again."

Subsequently, Oyetola's counsel sought to tender the documents which contain form CFO01 and its attachments, including Adeleke's credentials, saying the original file brought to court is a primary evidence and he was comfortable with it.

Counsel for INEC, Chief Henry Agunedo (SAN), said he would be objecting to the admissibility of the documents on the ground that the basis for the production of the whole file was because only two pages of the earlier-produced Certified True Copies were in contention, saying tendering the whole documents was out of place.

Counsel for Adeleke and PDP, Niyi Owolade and Alex Izinyon (SAN) respectively, said they have objection to the tendering of the said documents, but they would reserve their objections till final address stage.

Izinyon also observed that the only documents in contention were only two pages which are Adeleke's certificate and testimonial, saying the CTC earlier produced has not been tendered before the court.

Responding, Fagbemi said the practice everywhere is that INEC can only apply and get back the files after the dispensation of the cases, saying, "We asked for CTC and now that they brought this. We are fine, we will take it".

Ruling on the documents tendered, the tribunal led by Tertsea Kume admitted the credentials and the Adeleke's nomination form as exhibit 'FILE D' and taken as read.

It was after the tribunal admitted the documents that Fagbemi informed the panel that he had decided to close his case, saying, "My Lord, we rest our case".

When the tribunal asked INEC to open his defence, Chief Agunedo said, it would be difficult for him to open his case on Monday, saying non-availability of his witnesses would make it practically impossible.

The panel then asked the counsel to meet and agree on adjournment date after which Counsel for INEC briefed the panel the outcome of the meeting.

Subsequently, the tribunal adjourned the case till December 20 for the respondents to open their defence, saying the adjournment was based on another engagement by the tribunal somewhere else between 12th and 19th December 2022.

Earlier, Oyetola's counsel had informed the panel that the Court of Appeal in Abuja had reverted the judgement of a Federal High Court which disqualified Oyetola from contesting the election.

Meanwhile, the outcome of the sitting excited the members of the APC who witnessed the hearing, as jubilations erupted after the sitting of the panel. They chanted songs to eulogise Oyetola and the APC.

With this judgement I see oyetols returning back to govt house.

Adeleke has a bad case to contend. Many people comment based on hate and sentiments and not on reality on ground.

Oyetola will come out victorious at the tribunal.

He has a good case

Congrats to him

It does, lawyers on both sides, including the tribunal were ok with it.

Esp ekwo,okonkwo,nwite

This same man will say there is no money in Osun state, and that the state is broke. But he is still fighting to remain the governor of a broke state.

Eriokanmi:
This is called campaign after election. Gboyega should save the little he had stolen for his retirement or he tries his luck after 4 years with his running mate

And what if there was forgery or overvoting

Is it the same certificate that supreme Court has ruled as being valid? Nothing is in the certificate,
WAEC came to Court in 2018 to affirm its authenticity. APC is just trying to hold its members before 2023 election.

Wailing wailers don't understand the legal importance of this case. They will wail 2.0 the day Supreme Court makes prouncement.
