The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday commended the Court of Appeal for upholding the candidacy of the Osun State governor-elect, Ademola Adeleke, IgbereTV reports
The Court of Appeal sitting in Akure, Ondo State, on Wednesday affirmed Adeleke as the PDP candidate for last Saturday’s governorship election in Osun State.
The Federal High Court, Osogbo, had earlier dismissed an application filed by a PDP chieftain, Dotun Babayemi, challenging the validity of the primary held early this year.
Dissatisfied by the ruling, the plaintiff approached the appellate court to reverse the verdict.
The court, however, dismissed the appeal for lack of merit.
