Adeleke vs Oyetola: Appeal Court Opens-Up On ‘inclusion’ Of Justice Oyewole In Osun Election Panel

Adeleke and Oyetola

The Appeal Court, has refuted claim by the main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), that Justice Joseph Oyewole is part of the three-man panel to hear the appeal on the judgment in the Osun State governorship election dispute.

PDP candidate, Senator Ademola Adeleke is currently seeking to remove Governor Gboyega Oyetola, as the elected Governor of the State.

Mrs. Sa’adatu Musa Kachalla, who is the court’s spokesperson,  said Justice Oyewole was never considered as a member of the panel.

Kachalla, in a statement on Tuesday said: “Hon. Justice Joseph Oyewole, Justice of the Court of Appeal, Enugu Division, an illustrious son of Osun State, is not a member of the the Osun Governorship Election Appeal Tribunal set up by the President of the Court of Appeal, who had earlier said that the court must always put her integrity on the front burner.

“The members of the public are therefore advised not to be misguided by desperate and jittery individuals whose action is to heat up the polity.

“Time has changed, and it is better for us to change with time. The era of fake news is over.”
