The Governor of Osun State, Adegboyega Oyetola, has said
that his faith in the Nigerian judiciary in respect of his petition before the
election tribunal remains firm and unshaken.
Oyetola had asked the Election Petition Tribunal in Osogbo
to nullify the election of the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic
Party, Ademola Adeleke.
According to the governor, the election was fraught with certain
irregularities.
Oyetola said himself and his party, the All Progressives
Congress have confidence of emerging victorious at the tribunal.
The governor said this during the annual photograph and
videography day celebration and fund raising for the construction of the
association’s N20 million ultramodern hall on Sunday in Osogbo.
Represented by his Special Adviser on Civic Engagement, Mr
Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, the governor said he was confident that he would
reclaim his mandate at the tribunal.
This was contained in a statement made available to NigerianEye
on Sunday
He said, “For now, there is a little setback and challenge,
but I want to assure you that we are standing tall and confident of victory.
“With what we have
before the tribunal, there is no cause for alarm.
“We believe that by the grace of God, we will glorify God
and celebrate our victory”, he said.
The governor appreciated the people of the state for their
support for his administration since inception.
He also commended members of the association for standing by
his administration and assured them of government’s continuous assistance for
the growth of their business.
In his remarks, the chairman of the association, Isaac
Adegoke, said members of the association were direct beneficiaries of the
governor’s people-oriented programmes.
Issac noted that members of the association were solidly
behind the governor and would continue to support him in prayers for him to
emerge victorious at the tribunal.
Also, the Elerinrin of Ile-Ife, Oba Olaoluwa Mudasiru, who
is the immediate past chairman of the association, commended the governor for
his developmental strides in the state.
Oba Mudasiru also appreciated the governor for his support
for the association.
