Adeleke Vs Oyetola: Osun Governorship Appeal Live Updates by engineerboat(m): 1:35pm On Apr 24, 2019 |
[LIVE UPDATE] Osun Election: Appeal Court Hears Oyetola’s Appeal Against Adeleke The Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal is currently hearing the appeal filed by the Osun State Governor, Mr. Adegboyega Oyetola and the All Progressives Congress, challenging the judgment of the state’s Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal which nullified their election. The tribunal had on March 22, 2019, in a split decision declared Oyetola’s main rival in the September 2018 election in the state, Senator Ademola Adeleke of the Peoples Democratic Party as the one validly elected as the governor. It nullified the certificate of return issued to Oyetola and ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission to issue a fresh one to Adeleke. The tribunal’s Chairman, Justice Ibrahim Sirajo, in his minority judgment, dissented from the majority judgment adopted by Justices Peter Obiorah and Adegboye Gbolagunte. Oyetola had in his 39-ground notice of appeal filed on March 26, 2019, urged the Court of Appeal to nullify the majority judgment, which he argued was perverse, replete with contradictions and not supported by evidence led by the petitioners. 6 Likes 3 Shares

Chief Wole Olanipekun representing Gov Oyetola has submitted that the majority judgment of the Tribunal should be nullified because Justice Obiora that did not sit throughout the proceedings wrote the judgment and reviewed evidence of witnesses he did not see. 11 Likes 4 Shares |

Chief Olujinmi submitted on behalf of APC that the judgment is a nullity because the Tribunal went out on its own to grant reliefs not sought by the Petitioners whereas it has no jurisdiction to do so! 5 Likes 1 Share |

Yusuf Alli SAN held that the Tribunal held that INEC led evidence by way of cross-examination in line with pleadings and that INEC is not bound to cal a particular witness. That the Petitioners have not discharge the onus to show non-compliance was substantial. 3 Likes 1 Share |

engineerboat: Chief Olujimi 84 witnesses were called Cross-examined by You personally Does it mean you are Cross-examining a dumped form ec8A The 84 Witnesses tendered their pink copies of EC8As as well as the corresponding CTCs. From my understanding Once a witness tenders an exhibit as well as testify to them, those exhibits CANNOT be deemed to have been dumped. 8 Likes 3 Shares |

engineerboat: Chief Olanipekun There are court records available on that day, even this Appeal Court will refer to and rely on these same records of the Tribunal proceedings. Chief Olanipekun' s your only ground of appeal is that Justice Obiora absent for 1 day of the Tribunal sittings that lasted 4 Months. Ignoring the fact that the only 2 witnesses were called on that day out of about 100 Witnesses called! How substantial? The ball is now at the Appeal panel court 24 Likes 3 Shares |
