Senator Ademola Adeleke of the People’s Democratic Party has been declared winner of the osun state governorship election held in September 2018 by the election petition tribunal
The tribunal also ordered the withdrawal of the certificate of return issued to Mr Oyetola and ordered that a new certificate of return be issued to Mr Adeleke.
The three-member panel said that Mr Adeleke won the election at the first ballot on September 22 and the rerun that INEC devised to reach a final conclusion a week later was illegal.
“The rerun in the seven cancelled units are hereby declared null and void and of no electoral effect.”
