The Court said he can\u2019t Appeal without the Consent of INEC because the Judgement was not Directly against his Client but INEC. That INEC is the only one that can Answer the Questions of Over Voting and they must Approve his Appeal Letter before Submission. He has been Begging INEC Since then, but INEC says It\u2019s not interested in the Appeal, Which means that Adeleke Jackson Nurudeen Ademola May Leave Office in 12 days if INEC Refuses to Join the Appeal Application,\u201d the message claimed.<\/p>\n<p>Since the message surfaced on the internet, it has generated interest among supporters of the PDP and APC.<\/p>\n<p>But, Mr Abdulsalam told Journalists that the report is false.<\/p>\n<p>He assured that the judgement will be appealed and INEC is still involved in the suit, expressing assurance that the appellate court will set the tribunal judgement aside.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJudgement of the governorship election petition tribunal of Osun State like I said is a judgement that will be appealed and we have a very strong hope that the appeal court will do justice to the whole issue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConcerning the very incredible rumour that flies around that INEC is not going to appeal the judgement, it is a very laughable rumour. It is not true at all. I speak, not only from my mouth, I have also confirmed from people who are relevant in INEC,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe normal thing is for INEC to appeal with other parties, I want to assure you that INEC is also appealing that judgement,\u201d he assured.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf that kind if the judgement does not get to the Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court, how do we develop our jurisprudence in Nigeria? How do we develop the Electoral Act we have on ground?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know it is positive and it is the best thing for all of us in the case, including INEC to be at the Court of Appeal and by the grace of God at the Supreme Court.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another member of Mr Adeleke\u2019s legal team who did not wish to reveal his identity also confirmed that INEC is still involved in the case.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cINEC is appealing, leave them with their rumours,\u201d the lawyer said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The legal team of Governor Ademola Adeleke has denied a report circulating on social media that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has refused to appeal the judgement of the Osun State election petition tribunal.
