Even without contentious PUs, Adeleke would still win Osun guber, inecnigeria lawyer tells tribunal | TheCable
In August 2022, Oyetola and the APC petitioned the tribunal to challenge the victory of Adeleke, candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the election.
Citing sections 51 and 47 of the Electoral Act during the adoption of his final written address on Friday, Lateef Fagbemi, counsel to the APC, urged the court to cancel results from polling units where the number of votes exceeded registered and accredited voters.However, INEC in its final written address by Paul Ananaba insisted that Adeleke won the governorship poll.
“If a deduction of 1750 units was carried out from the total 3763 units in the state, the second respondent will still emerge as winner with over 20,000 votes”Ananaba also added that the commission can confirm that Adeleke was eligible to contest the election.
