Court of Appeal sitting in the Federal Capital Territory has overruled the judgement of the Osun State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal which nullified the victory of the All Progressives Congress’ candidate, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola.
Eyewitnessreporters gathered that Justice Hannatu Sankey set aside the entire proceedings of the Tribunal following what it described as its “faulty composition”.
The judgment of the appellate court was upheld by four justices of the five-man panel.
The tribunal, in its March 22, 2019 split judgment of two-to-one, nullified Oyetola’s victory and declared Adeleke and the PDP the winner of the election.
