Ahead of Friday’s Appeal Court judgment on the matter between Governor Ademola Adeleke and Alhaji Adegboyega Oyetola, the Osun State Police command said there’s the strategic deployment of personnel around critical infrastructure in the state.

 

A statement by the acting Public Relations Officer of the Command, Kehinde Adeleke, said, “There will also be patrol by an armed detachment of the corps in readiness for emergency response. The command is ready to prevent any breakdown of law and order arising from possible protests by aggrieved parties.”

 

According to The PUNCH, the Osun State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps also said it had deployed personnel to critical infrastructure in the state ahead of the judgment.

 

Meanwhile, the Osun State chapters of the Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congress have expressed hope for victory, as the Court of Appeal in Abuja, today, delivers judgment to determine the winner of the July 16 governorship election in Osun State.

 

The Independent National Electoral Commission had returned Senator Ademola Adeleke of the PDP as the winner of the poll.

 

INEC said Adeleke polled 403,371 votes, to defeat then-incumbent governor Adegboyega Oyetola of the APC, who got 375,027 votes.

 

But Oyetola and the APC rejected the result of the poll and headed for the tribunal.

 

In its January 27, 2023 majority verdict, the Justice Tertse Kume-led tribunal annulled Adeleke’s victory and declared Oyetola the winner of the poll.

 

However, a minority judgment by Justice B. Ogbuli affirmed Adeleke as the winner of the poll.

 

Displeased, Adeleke and the PDP headed for the Court of Appeal.
