Supreme Court Queries Oyetola's Counsel On Physical BVAS Machine, Reserves Judgment Till Tomorrow

Supreme Court on Monday reserved judgement on the appeal filed by former governor Gboyega Oyetola against the election of Governor Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke, just as the Court questioned Counsel to the former governor for his attempts to deceive the court with his silence over importance of physical BVAS machine to the election over and above server report, in line with the electoral act as amended.

Apparently dazed by the question, Oyetola's Counsel stuttered and rigmaroled as he could not proffer any reasonable response to the query which is cardinal for the determination of the appeal.

The proceedings which lasted less than one hour saw the apex Court streamlining all the five appeals into one, basis on which judgement will be delivered.

Counsel to Governor Ademola Adeleke, the PDP as well as INEC, while adopting their separate briefs already with the Court, urged the lord Justices of the apex Court to discountenance attempts by the APC and Governor Gboyega to hijack the popular mandate of the people of Osun State in an election they did not win, describing Oyetola and APC's appeals as tantamount to an unserious hunter looking for the legs of a snake.

The learned counsel wondered why the APC are hell bent in re-writing the law by trying to shift burden of proof of their own allegations on the respondents.

According to them, the new electoral act does not envisage a situation where respondents, particularly in election matters would assume position of discharging burden of proof.

Such a situation, according to the counsel, sounds unreasonable by a desperate thief caught pants down in the very act. Adeleke's counsel therefore entreated the Court to throw away the appeals, saying Oyetola and APC only want to eat a pie in the skye.

See
I fear they might use Osun case to set a precedence that would be used to help Tinubu’s case.

And I say this because Osun case is the first major case since BVAS and IREV became legal instruments of INEC.

Where do you think the judgment will swing from the proceedings in court?
The CA went on a journey to nowhere when it relied on the old Electoral Act to say the voters register is to be used in determining whether there was over voting. The BVAS has the final say - by the new electoral act. My view.

So, Oyetola doesn't have a solid argument, right? Remember that he won at the tribunal. He doesn't need Tinubu to win this case.
With that foolish Bugga judgement right?

The decision can't be in Oyetola's because is his not basing his argument on the primary source. He didn't call witness and never disputed adeleke's forensic report.

According to the new electoral law, is the voters register a pre requisite to prove over voting

There is no justice in NIGERIA>S JUDICIARY, IT.S AL GAMBLING GOIN TO COURT IN NIGERIA.
The law does not work, all is child<s play, and and all the judges in Nigeria should be sacked because they are alla waste of education and national resources.
How can judgements in one case be so opposite in different level of courts?
OUR JUDGES HAVE MADE LAW A GAME OF CHANCE, A CHANGE OF COURT MEANS A CHANGE OF JUDGMENT

You actually got it wrong....INEC agreed there was Over voting at the tribunal but they were only contending at the Appeal Court if a Voter Register is needed to prove over voting or not.

The Tribunal agreed that The voter register is not needed while the Appeal ruled that its needed..So we await the response of the Supreme Court on that tmrw 🤗

Imagine Supreme Court removing this Man that has over performed within short period of time. The judiciary should not allow themselves to be used as a willing tool in the hands of the evil politicians. They are the surviving Institution to uphold our democracy.

There was nothing like INEC admitting to over voting, the English used by the INEC witness was "seemingly over voting" and he said it was because of "synchronisation". Infact, this is more reason why BVAS, result sheets and register are necessary to be considered in the judgement because they are the materials present at the venues of the election (polling units).
