The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has rejected the judgement of the Osun State Governorship Election Tribunal which it said nullified the mandate freely given to its Party and Candidate, Governor Ademola Adeleke by the people of Osun State in the July 16, 2022, Governorship election.
The opposition party said the judgment of the Tribunal is contrary to the will of the people of Osun State.
The party, in a statement by its national publicity secretary, Debo Ologunagba, said on July 16, 2022, the Governorship election in Osun State was adjudged by Local and International Observers to be free, fair, transparent and clearly won by the PDP. “The Will of the people of Osun State as expressed by electing Governor Adeleke must be respected. As a law-abiding Party, the PDP will explore all available legal means to restore the victory of our Party.
The PDP charged the people of Osun State to be calm, remain alert and continue to support Governor Adeleke as “we restate our confidence in the Institution of the Judiciary to dispense justice in this matter at the Appellate Court.”
