Osun State Governance: Supreme Court Today Chooses Between Oyetola And Adeleke

Osun State indegines and other stakeholders today, May 9, 2023, hold their breathe as the Supreme Court gives judgment in the appeal brought by a former Governor of Osun State, Gboyega Oyetola, contesting the ruling of the Appeal Court in the Governorship Election conducted in the State in Nov. 16, 2022.

Oyetola has asked the apex court to reverse the judgment of the Appeal Court on March 25, which upturned the earlier decision of the Federal Election Tribunal and ruled in favour of Ademola Adeleke, who is now the incumbent governor of the state.

The five-member panel of the Supreme Court, on Monday, fixed the judgement date for Tuesday, May 9, after taking arguments from the two parties in the case.
