The governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Osun State , Senator Ademola Adeleke , has vowed to retrieve his ‘stolen mandate ’ from Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress at the election petition tribunal .
Adeleke said this while speaking in an interview with journalists shortly before the final figure was announced by the Returning Officer, Prof . Joseph Fuwape, on Thursday.
The PDP candidate , who spoke through his brother , Dele Adeleke , said he would meet with the party leadership and tribunal would be the next step for the party and the candidate to take .
He said , “It will be foolish to allow this 419 result to stand. The party will meet and I believe that the tribunal is the next step to take.
“Adeleke ’s mandate can ’t be stolen, it will be retrieved . The wish of the people will stand at the end .”
However , the All Progressives Congress has said the PDP is crying foul over the result of the Osun State governorship rerun election because of the inability of the opposition party to rig the poll .
The APC said this in a statement issued on Thursday by its Director of Publicity , Research and Strategy in Osun State , Mr Kunle Oyatomi .
Speaking in the statement released after the rerun poll which was held in seven units , the APC spokesperson said that the opposition party made an elaborate arrangement to rig the poll but were prevented from carrying out the act .
He said , “Osun people have spoken . The PDP was unable to manipulate the result this time around , so they are crying foul. We have always known and have made ourselves clear before the election that the PDP had made elaborate arrangements to rig the election through the manipulation of the card readers and it was this process that made them got the votes allocated to them in the first ballot .
“Nobody expected the PDP to even come second . Most people in Osun have the belief that it would be a straight fight between the APC and SDP. But as God would have it, Osun was saved from the vultures.
“We will like the Osun people to understand that the runoff votes went the way it did because the PDP was unable to manipulate the card readers this time around and fortunately the police thwarted their plot of vote -buying and trying to use the PVCs of unsuspecting voters . That was why some of their leaders were arrested . So the PDP should look for other excuses .
“They attempted to win by fraud; they failed in the first round and eventually lost the rerun election .” https://punchng.com/osun-rerun-ill-retrieve-my-stolen-mandate-at-tribunal-adeleke/

Election never happened in Osun.. To think we thought Nigeria has gotten one-thing right on election matters,

we spent billions on card readers,
billions on security operatives,
billions on equity and independence of INEC,

Demonstrated it in 2015 as a yardstick to set a pace, mushroom parties were beginning to grow, faith was being restored with the clamour for PVC, It was being seen as a tool of independence..

To think all we worked for to reconfigure the mind of an average Nigerian to believe we can effect change, that we can still get it right has been watered down the bottomless pit of corruption by the same people empowered through the little progress made.

The INEC chairman showed his hands too early..

Even the pdp party agent didn't sign the result sheet. not to worry about when the pdp agent was sent away by the APC thugs. even the Apc supporters that's in whatsapp platform confirmed it that the rerun election was heavily rigged. you can always deceive yourself and not me. we know the truth.

Pls I wanna ask one question...

Can those who voted for Buhari in 2015, hit their chest and say they are still proud of the choice they made?

what I love distinguished senator Ademola Adeleke in this election is that he put a fight in Apc fold and in all he won the people's heart. infact he won each and everyone's heart. we all know the truth, it can only be delayed but can never be denied.

My brother if you dont know let me tell you that it is very difficult to upturn an election in the supreme court nowadays. This is because the supreme court/ Olanikpekun & co have made it very difficult and rigorous to prove the case of "substantial non-compliance". If Fayose, Wike, Udom, okezie ikpeazu, Bello and Obaseki can win in the supreme court then any other person can win.

don't you see that if pdp didn't partake in the rerun, don't you see that they will used all the means in blowing their propaganda about it. we all know that yesterday rerun election was marred with violence and rigging. the evidence is even more obvious.

They will rob you again

Fear APC! They are evil!!!


We warned Nigerians about this Buhari but they were blinded by religious, ethnic bigotry and plain stupidity. Some even believed they can vote APC out if they dont perform, what will y’all do now that your vote don’t mean shiit?

Abeg make I go listen to my Carter V jare!

Its very possible you may have MONEY, but no POWER.
The both works together.
The adeleke's lacked the later.
Whoever thought APC would deliver osun to PDP just like a package may probably needs to see the doctor for a possible brain check.

Davido has released new single... Amaka remix
Inec disappoint me ondiyereke confusion..
Inec disappoint me onyeke disapointment o...

Waste of resource who did you think is in control of the Tribunal

I think you may be right. May be he should have secured a court injunction stopping the rerun or simply not participated in/boycotted the rerun while insisting on having won the original one. Inec would have had no choice than to halt the exercise, and if they went ahead they would be in contempt of court making any conducted rerun exercise invalid. That might have been a missed opportunity on his part.

This is just the beginning of what the west did to this country by chasing away GEJ... God will keep on rewarding you ppl with bad leaders like Pharoah... Lol.... Una never see anything...God will deal with all yorubas both at state level and federal level ����#osunrecry

Good decision! and please while you are at it, don't heat up the polity with unsubstantiated story

Okay just go sit down no waste ur money coz say ppl that robbed ur are still going to be done same people u will meet at the tribunal




.
Na Davido I even dey pity. The shame of losing after the whole campaign and skelewu dance.
