INEC, tribunal frustrating my petitions –Olusola

_Kamarudeen Ogundele, Ado Ekiti_

The candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the July 14 governorship election in Ekiti State, Prof Kolapo Olusola, has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission of frustrating his efforts to duly file a petition at the election petitions tribunal.

Olusola is challenging the victory of the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Dr Kayode Fayemi, as declared by the INEC.

He alleged that his applications to INEC for the certified true copies of election documents and a motion ex parte made to the tribunal were rebuffed despite having fulfilled necessary steps.

Olusola raised the alarm that the delay from INEC and the tribunal were plans to allow time to run against him in instituting the legal action within the 21 days.

He urged the election petitions tribunal to expedite action on his two applications and allow the law to take its course.

“We applied for certified true copies of election documents to assist in the preparation and presentation of my petition.

“The application was filed on July 16 to the Ekiti State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Prof Abdulganiyu Raji, and upon approval of the application, we made payment on July 20. Till now, no document has been made available to us by INEC.

“We equally made an application for certified true copies of the document to the INEC Chairman, Abuja, Prof. Mahmoud Yakubu, on July 17, and upon approval, payment was made on July 18.”

Olusola added that no document had been made available to him despite repeated visits to INEC offices in Ekiti and Abuja.

“I, therefore, make a passionate appeal to INEC not to frustrate me further as the damage it has done to me is enough.

“The action of INEC is showing that they are out to frustrate me so that time will completely run out against me in line with the expectation of their task masters.”

The Public Relations Officer of INEC in Ekiti, Alhaji Taiwo Gbadegesin, did not answer calls to his phone.

He had also yet to reply a text message sent to him by our correspondent as of 7:22 pm.

Good for you

See who is talking now.

All through the period leading to the election, Nobody heard him say anything and now after losing due to the negative influence of that disaster of a governor called Fayose, he has suddenly found his voice. Mere exercise in futility.

He has better move on and find something to do instead of flogging a dead horse.

Torh

APC is fake, they came to cajole us with change that is unrealistic and unachievable. Can't see any difference since 2015, except d manageable energy.

Don't mind them,we all know that APC will not allow you to tender petition before the tribunal.

APC didn't win the Ekiti State Governorship Elections.

like for eleka,... Share for fayemi

Eleka swallow stone and drink water on top. Nothing could be done to this again

Your loud mouth governor don abandon you with the tribunal

APC know they lost this election. There's enough evidence to prove that wrong results were declared.

Nigeria has retrogressed to the old days of political manipulations.

Buhari must not go unpunished

Now, it's funny to these paid trolls? I'm still trying to figure out if the BMC get paid to trade their senses for junks?

You have to be human to say the truth and not sell your conscience for a morsel of bread.

You will be shocked that these paid agents are fathers? They have a family but lack good sense of judgement.

Prof, you better return to the classroom
