Exclusion: INEC Dragged to Court, Osun Election Null, Says Ajulo

Another twist has been introduced into the already tensed Osun state governorship election with the information just coming in to our news room that the Independent National Electorial Commission INEC has been dragged to court over the exclusion of NRM candidate from the polls.

Supreme Court

IGBERE TV reports that Dr. Kayode Ajulo, an Oshogbo based human rights activist, has described the governorship election held yesterday in Osun State as null and void and an exercise in futility.

Ajulo told IGBERE TV that the election cannot stand since INEC unlawfully excluded Ms Jumoke Lawoyin, the candidate of National Resistance Movement (NRM), from participating in the election despite the fact that INEC had witnessed the primary of the party & gave her notice of election.

Ajulo said: “All efforts made to ensure that INEC do the needful was abortive as INEC went ahead to conduct the election without correcting the huge anomaly.

“Presently, a pre-election matter is before the Federal High Court in respect of the matter. And a petition will be filed to set aside the election as consequence of the illegal exclusion of a duly presented candidate of NRM.”

As at the time of this report, INEC is yet to declare the winner of the keenly contested polls.
