My faith in Nigerian judiciary unshaken, says Oyetola

The Osun State Governor, Mr Gboyega Oyetola, has said his faith in the Nigerian judiciary in respect of his petition before the election tribunal remains firm and unshaken.

Oyetola had asked the Election Petition Tribunal in Osogbo to nullify the election of the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Senator Ademola Adeleke.

The governor insisted that the election was charaterised with certain irregularities.

Oyetola said himself and his party, the All Progressives Congress have confidence of emerging victorious at the tribunal.

The governor said this during the annual photograph and videography day celebration and fund raising for the construction of the association’s N20 million ultramodern hall on Sunday in Osogbo.

Represented by his Special Adviser on Civic Engagement, Mr Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, the governor said he was confident that he would reclaim his mandate at the tribunal.

He said, “For now, there is a little setback and challenge, but I want to assure you that we are standing tall and confident of victory.

“With what we have before the tribunal, there is no cause for alarm.

“We believe that by the grace of God, we will glorify God and celebrate our victory”, he said.

Oyetola appreciated the people of the state for their support for his administration since inception.
