Ahead supreme court judgement tommorrow, the People Democratic Party Chieftain, Hon. Tunde Balogun Adeniyi has call on the good people of osun state, party leaders, stakeholders, well wishers and all osun faithful across the world to pray that tomorrow’s judgment shall be in favour of Senator Gov Ademola Adeleke
It is the will of Osun State to have Senator Ademola Adeleke as the amiable Governor of the State which is as well believed to be God sent to deliver us from the shackles of the past administration.
It should be recalled that Peoplesmind report that the supreme court today reserved judgement on the appeal filed by former governor Gboyega Oyetola against the election of governor Ademola jackson nurudeen Adeleke , just as the Court questioned Counsel to the former governor for his attempts to deceive the court with his silence over importance of physical BVAS machine to the election over and above server report, in line with the electoral act as amended.
Apparently dazed by the question, Oyetola’s Counsel stuttered and rigmaroled as he could not proffer any reasonable response to the query which is cardinal for the determination of the appeal.
The proceedings which lasted less than one hour saw the apex Court streamlining all the five appeals into one, basis on which judgement will be delivered.
Counsel to Governor Ademola Adeleke, the PDP as well as INEC, while adopting their separate briefs already with the Court, urged the lord Justices of the apex Court to discountenance attempts by the APC and Governor Gboyega to hijack the popular mandate of the people of Osun State in an election they did not win, describing Oyetola and APC’s appeals as tantamount to an unserious hunter looking for the legs of a snake.
The learned counsel wondered why the APC are hell bent in re-writing the law by trying to shift burden of proof of their own allegations on the respondents.
According to them, the new electoral act does not envisage a situation where respondents, particularly in election matters would assume position of discharging burden of proof.
Such a situation, according to the counsel, sounds unreasonable by a desperate thief caught pants down in the very act. Adeleke’s counsel therefore entreated the Court to throw away the appeals, saying Oyetola and APC only want to eat a pie in the skye.
It is on this note that Hon. Tunde Adeniyi Balogun has call all party faithful to engage in special prayer to help retain the mandate and the good will of the good people of Osun state.
We have all come this far with prayer and the power of almighty Allah, we know that he will be on our side same way he as always be on our side
We all pray for victory as the Supreme Court make his final judgement.
