Ademola Adeleke has rejected the judgement declared by the State Election Petition Tribunal that sacked him as the governor of Osun state.
He also rejected the declaration of Adegboyega Oyetola as the winner of the July 16, 2022, Governorship Election describing it as a miscarriage of Justice and a ruse.
He vowed to appeal the judgement at the Court.
This was contained in a release signed by Mallam Olawale Rasheed Spokesperson to Gov Adeleke.
While reacting to the verdict of the Tribunal from his country home, Ede, Governor Adeleke faulted the resolution of the over-voting question in favour of Mr Oyetola, calling it ” an unfair interpretation against the will of the majority of voters”
While urging his supporters to remain calm, Governor Adeleke vowed to appeal the judgement at the Court of Appeal, insisting he remains the rightful winner of the July 16 election.
“I call on our people to remain calm. We will appeal the judgement and we are sure justice will be done. Let our people be reassured that we will do everything possible to retain this widely acclaimed mandate”, Governor Adeleke declared
