The
proceeding at Osun election has indicted that the likelihood of Osun state
having a new chief executive in the next few weeks is very high.
The
tribunal's manual inspection and re-counting of ballot papers used for the
election exposed that over one hundred thousand invalid votes were dumped in
favour of Governor Aregbesola in almost all the Local authorities in the
states.
Majority
of these thumb printed ballot papers are from Ekiti state election in favour of
Aregbesola (APC), were discovered in local government like Osogbo, Olorunda,
Ejigbo, Ede North, Irewole, Ila-Orogun, Irepodun and others Aregbesola (APC)
claimed he won.
Tribunal
adjourned sitting to 30th of October, 2014 with newly appointed Judges as
members. Justice E.N. Ikpejime from Benue State, will serve as chairman,
Justice V.I Ofesi from Delta State and Justice Kutigi from the Federal Capital
Territory (FCT), Abuja are members.
As
things stands now Omisore secured more valid votes in the Osun state governorship
election and according to Hope for Nigeria, if the new Tribunal members confirm
the re-counted results, Osun state will surely be having a new governor in
couple of weeks to come.
