The Supreme Court today affirmed the August 9th 2014
election of Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun state. The state PDP Governorship
candidate Senator Iyiola Omisore had approached the apex court to vacate the
previous ruling of the Court of Appeal and the Osun state Election Tribunal
that had upheld the election of Aregbesola. Omisore asked the court to declare
him winner of the election, accusing Mr Aregbesola and his party, APC of
engaging in electoral malpractice during the election.
A seven man panel of judges in the Supreme court led
by Justice John Fabiyi, ruled that Aregbesola was dully elected and is not
found guilty of any election malpractice.
