The Osun State chapter of the People's Decorative Party (PDP), has described as shocking the Appeal Court judgement, which set aside Tribunal verdict that declared Adeleke as winner of the state's September guber election, and declared Oyetola as the validly elected governor.
The party, on Thursday, made known its stand in Press statement signed by their Chairman, Hon. Soji Adagunodo. According to Adagunodo, though the Appeal Court verdict is shocking, but not the final verdict which is going to be be favourable to Senator Ademola Adeleke and PDP.
"We received the Appeal Court Judgement of the Osun State Election petition of today with a huge shock.
Considering all evidences before the lower court and legal points adduced by our legal team at the Appeal Court, we expect victory at the Appeal Court but that's the beauty of democracy, you win one you lose one and it is not over until it is over
We have hope in the judiciary, that does not mean that once in a while there won't be some hiccups in the judicial process, it is understandable and expected that all judges are not the same and they don't think the same and we believe that at the end of the day the Supreme Court will do justice to our case and victory will be ours.
We enjoin our people to be peaceful, calm resolute and have high hope, in the next two months, by the grace of God, Senator Nurudeen Ademola Adeleke will be declared as the governor of Osun State and by then the swearing-in of the new governor in Osun State will be the next stage,"the statement reads.
