Senator Ademola Adeleke, Osun State Governor-elect has gathered about 52 lawyers including seven Senior Advocates of Nigeria, to defend his case at the Election Petition Tribunal in Osogbo.<\/p>\n

Governor Adegboyega Oyetola, who contested the July 16 governorship election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, had asked the tribunal in Osogbo to nullify Adeleke\u2019s election.<\/p>\n

Adeleke was the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the election.<\/p>\n

Recall that Adeleke was returned elected by the Independent National Electoral Commission, after defeating his closest challenger, incumbent governor Oyetola, and 13 other candidates, scoring a total of 403, 371<\/p>\n

Oyetola got 375, 027 votes and won in 13 Local Government Areas of the state to come second in the election.<\/p>\n

Dr Alex Izinyon, Dr Paul Ananaba and Dr Onyeachi Ikpeazu are among the seven SANs defending Adeleke<\/a> and other respondents.<\/p>\n

While Izinyon would be leading another SAN and 16 other lawyers for the PDP, Ananaba would be representing INEC with two other SANs and 14 lawyers.<\/p>\n

It was also learnt that Ikpeazu would be leading another SAN with no fewer than 10 other lawyers to defend Adeleke.<\/p>\n

While INEC and the PDP<\/a> have filed their defences, Adeleke had yet to file his defence. Ananaba and Izinyon confirmed to our correspondent that they have filed their preliminary objections, while Ikpeazu\u2019s telephone line indicated that it was switched off when contacted for a response.<\/p>\n

Izinyon, in an interview\u00a0said he filed a defence two weeks ago with preliminary objection on 35 grounds.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cWe have already filed a defence about two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

We are leading the team and we filed a preliminary objection on 35 grounds\u00a0 but the petition cannot be entertained even on a preliminary issue.<\/p>\n

Among the issues that Adeleke is not qualified and the issue they raised about his high school is being determined by the Court of Appeal which we started.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou cannot bring it in because it has been determined and we also raised several grounds against the competency of the petition itself; why it cannot see the light of day on the three so-called grounds that were filed. First was the issue of qualification, the other two were on majority lawful votes and non-compliance. We have dealt with that.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe case should be dismissed for lacking in merit. They itemised 10 Local Government Areas where they said there were overvoting out of 31 LGAs. They have even shot themselves on the leg because if you look at the vote coming out from there and compare with what they have, they cannot make a case out of it based on the grounds relied upon.\u201d<\/p>\n
