OSUN: Oyetola hopeful of return as Adeleke set to take over today

The outgoing Osun State Governor, Gboyega Oyetola, remains confident of eventual return as Senator Ademola Adeleke takes over on Sunday (today) as the governor of the state, IgbereTV reports

Adeleke, who is the governor-elect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), would be inaugurated in Osogbo City Stadium.

Those expected at the inauguration include the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, the national chairman of the party, Dr Iyorchia Ayu, and other PDP governors.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had in June 17 declared Adeleke as the winner of the Osun governorship election with a total of 403,371.

The outgoing Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress, had scored 375,027 votes.

Oyetola had in August approached the elections petition tribunal in the state to challenge the election outcome.

However, the PDP had described his step as a wasteful voyage
