An aspirant in the just-concluded Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship primary election in Osun, Akin Ogunbiyi, has called on the party’s leadership to declare him winner.

Ogunbiyi told newsmen on Monday in Abuja that he was at the party’s National Secretariat to petition the leadership over the primary that produced Sen. Ademola Adeleke as the flag-bearer for the September 22 poll.

Ogunbiyi narrowly lost to Adeleke, polling 1,562 votes as against 1,569 votes by the latter.

In his reaction, Adeleke urged other contenders to work with him.

The lawmaker urged all aggrieved aspirants to join hands with him to reclaim the state from the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He particularly urged Ogunbiyi to “come on board,”, and congratulated him for “his hard-fighting team and for running a good and impressive campaign’’.

But in a petition addressed to the Chairman, Gubernatorial Electoral Appeal Panel of the PDP, the aspirant said that 42 voided votes and 128 unaccounted votes were for him.

He added that the total votes he garnered at the poll were 1,732.

“I, Dr Akin Ogunbiyi, having polled the highest number of votes in the primary election of July 21, be declared the validly nominated and elected PDP governorship candidate for the forthcoming gubernatorial election in Osun.”

He also called for the disqualification of Adeleke based on the faulted process of the primary.

“Contrary to Section 30, Sub-Section `E’ of the Electoral Guidelines for primary election 2018, the total number of delegates accredited was not announced before the commencement of voting.”

Ogunbiyi alleged that document submitted by Adeleke as evidence of his educational qualification up to school certificate level did not meet the basic qualification stipulated by the 1999 Constitution and the Electoral Act.

“The Principal of Muslim Grammar School, Ede, Mr Khalid Abbas, who purportedly signed the testimonial had not been posted to the school in question as at the date indicated on the document.

“The principal has denied ever issuing or signing it and the denial is very well on record.”

Matters arising....
Some other parties apart from APC have very good chances to win this election.
But seems they are messing things up from the start.
A party divided against itself can never stand.
APC May just clinch it again.......perhaps!

keep filling u guys are goin dere to steal nani... u not going there for d masses..

Parking well

Politicians and murky fight.

Pdp is dead and buried in Osun State, They will lose woefully in the next election.

is like PDP don't knw they'll still lose that election

Dr. Akin Ogunbiyi is the winner of the primary election. The only credible candidate that can defeat APC in Osun. Dancing senator only won his senatorial district based on sympathy. No sane person will allow such man to attain the post of Osun state governor. Backward never!

.

if you get the money, then carry on, but if you will go bankrupt then stop it. that man get money pass you o.

Akin ogunbiyi is just destroying himself and his reputation more. I'm challenging him, please why can't you challenge him when he won the last year senatorial election, dr. ademola adeleke is a learned person with highly exposed person in academics. they only want to pull him down which it won't work. can't he see that it is the Lord's doing and it is marvellous in our sight. keep it coming jare. Akin ogunbiyi is just making it more popular by the day. any day any time, the great victory on september 22 will be assured by the special grace of almighty God. you don't play your politics in this way. even south west pdp has congratulate senator Ademola Adeleke. he should go through dr. ademola adeleke biography again. adeleke family in all are well educated. they even sponsored thousands of people abroad on scholarship based. he is just making him to become popular.

go take ur mixture... says wu

Let them take it to the dance floor and see who win win

Looks like Osun gubernatorial election will be a walk in the park for APC since PDP have chosen not to put their house in order.

Stupid,senseless and selfish politicians

there is no any form of waec certificate forgery here. they just want to pull him down but it will never happen by the special grace of almighty God.senator ademola adeleke was once the best among his peers in his class in muslim grammar school in ede. he is brilliant among his peers. he even sponsored thousands of less privilege on scholarship abroad. if what i'm hearing about Akin ogunbiyi is true that he only want to caused disagreement among the pdp leaders and members in osun state, i think his mission have failed. infact alot of people didn't know him at all. he is not a grassroot politician at all. thank God for the victory of senator ademola adeleke on the last saturday primary election. the election was free and fair all through. we already know where we are going. why can't ogunbiyi show up when senator ademola adeleke show up in last year senatorial bye election, why can't shows up and ask of his certificate. I'm sorry the pulling down syndrom will never work in osun state. ogunbiyi should be cleared about that. he should accept defeat and move on. you both spend money together, and that is not a big deal.

Apc mole!

Peoples Demonic Party, can't you people learn from Anti People Congress?

Pdp is a joke, they keep running from pillar to post just to get back power at the central when they don’t have plan on what to do because they’re too desperate.

Anything achieved with desperation won’t end well.
Ordinary state primary election, what will now happen if it’s the presidential own.

After the long epistle you succeeded in making no sense, you did a recount for an individual and refuse to recount for the other, does that denote fairness?

PDP starting to loose even before election , trying to rig this nigga out for a bigger money bag wen forge certificate , I hope dis case lingers up till October because making that dancing clown a governor would be another belle infrastructure eye sew that would take a life time to correct
