The Governor of Osun State, Chief Adegboyega Oyetola, Friday filed a 1,240-page petition at the state’s  Governorship Elecrion Petition Tribunal sitting at the State High Court, Osogbo.

Chief Oyetola is the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the July 16 election, and had approached the tribunal to challenge the declaration of Sen. Ademola Adeleke of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), as the winner of the election.

Oyetola and the state Chairman of the APC, Prince Gboyega Famodun, jointly signed the petition.

The APC had hinted that it would approach the tribunal to challenge the election, saying that the legal team of the party had assured them that they have a good case.

Confirming the development, the lead counsel of the party, Chief Rasheed Adegoke, SAN, said that the petition has been filed, expressing hope that the party would be victorious at the tribunal.

Adegoke had earlier said that about 50 lawyers, including Saka Layonu, SAN, had signified the intention to appear for Oyetola and the APC.

There is no word yet from Sen. Adeleke and his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on whether they have been served with the court processes and what their responses would be.
