A civil society group, the Civil Liberty Union, has raised alarm over alleged harrassments and threats against some members of the Supreme Court panel of Justices presiding over the Osun governorship Appeal by a team allegedly led by a national leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Southwest and 2 governors one from the South West and the other from North West.

The group alleged that the APC leader and the two governors were allegedly using the names of President Muhammadu Buhari to intimidate the Justices to jettison the supremacy of the Constitution and find any way to give a favourable judgement to Gboyega Oyetola, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

This claim was contained in a statement issued in Abuja and signed by its Coordinator, Mallam Shuaibu Adamu, Daily Post reports.
The statement added that the APC leader and the 2 governors went bullish and desperate when they couldn’t get President Buhari to give explicit support to his quest to influence the Supreme court.

“They went to falsely quote that the President has directed the Justices to do their bid and forget any matter of constitution by endorsing Oyetola as Governor.

“We are aware of an evil plot to truncate justice in the case of Osun state Governorship Appeal before the Supreme Court.

“We want to alert President Muhammadu Buhari that the APC leader and the two governors are using his name and office to harass and compel Supreme Justices to rule in their favour.

“This is happening right now and we want the President to know and act quickly before further damage and utter destruction is done to the Judiciary.

“From last night till now, the APC leader has been running helter skelter with both promises of Billions as well as threats of severe consequences against Justices who do not agree.

“We know authoritatively that President Buhari has told Justice Tanko that the law should take its cause on Osun. We know that Justice Tanko has vowed to allow Justice to prevail.“That was why he is dropping Mr President’s name. We urge the justices to remain steadfast.

The whole world knows what happened in Osun was a rape of democracy and an affront to the Constitution of the Federal republic of Nigeria

“The UK, US and EU all condemned the election especially the established voter harassments and disenfranchisement that characterized it.

“We affirm to the Justices that ruling on facts and supremacy of the constitution is the right and conscionable path of honour and posterity will judge them as bold and courageous standing for equity and justice.

“We are interested in this matter because it is a stain on the nation’s democratic credential.We need to clean it up by allowing the truth and the constitution to prevail.

“Mr President also agreed to this line of thought and that was why he has directed the Supreme Court to follow the law and their convictions. We won’t stand by and allow the APC leader to rubbish our country any further.

“We plan to present a protest letter to the Presidency and the Chief Justice of Nigeria on this matter,” the group declared.

“From last night till now, the APC leader has been running helter skelter with both promises of Billions as well as threats of severe consequences against Justices who do not agree.

Tinubu is a virus that we must stop from spreading further before it goes out of hand.

He has always procured justice with his stolen funds. He did it with Aregbesola in 2010 by buying Justice Ayo Salami, he did it for himself at the Code of Conduct Tribunal, and he also did it for Oyetola at the Appeal Court.

Concerned citizens of Osun and Yoruba land and all lovers of democracy in Nigeria must speak up against financial inducement and intimidation of the supreme Court judges NOW.

The rape of democracy in Osun, Kano and Nigeria must not be allowed to go uncorrected.

An injury to one is an injury to ALL.

The CERTIFICATE FORGER called Adeleke who cannot pass ordinary school Cert Exams but want to rule a whole state of Osun....is afraid he will lose and is desperate to make all sorts of unsubtantiated allegations.

How on earth can one APC Leader and TWO Governors intimidate or influence a whole supreme court?
If APC could not intimidate ordinary Federal Judges in Rivers, Anambra, Imo and Zamfara states where the Court forced them to lose elections to PDP, does it make sense that it is in Osun that they can?

PDP should stop using style to intimindate the Judges by alleging intimidation.
Adeleke is NOT FIT ENOUGH to rule a state, anywhere in Nigeria.
I am sure Osun state PDP can present someone more electable aside from this fraudster who could not even muster a "Buhari Pass" in O-level, now renting small boyz to write exams for him.

After he Oyetola has been properly declared winner, Adeleke should be sent to jail for his Examination malpractices to set an example to younger ones that Honesty Pays, Criminality and Exam malpractices will not be tolerated

Nothing for the dancing Senator joo.
APC is not impeccable but the dancer is not a better alternative.

Its too early to wail!

Adeleke should relax! His loss at the supreme court is inevitable.


It will be much more easier for Iran to turn USA to dust, than for Adeleke to rule Osun state.

you are just disgracing yourself here. you don't even know law talkless of what they will based their judgement on. what the human rights group are saying is that the supreme court shouldn't be carjoled and bought by the moneybags politicians. besides supreme court judgement are always ruled based on the law of the land talking about the case presenting to them. oyetola is only living in hanging balance.
