Nigerian singer David Adeleke popularly known as Davido has revealed how he reacted to the news of the Supreme Court judgement which dismissed the appeal of his uncle challenging the declaration of Gboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the winner of the Osun State governorship election.
The Supreme Court in July 2019 dismissed the appeal of Senator Ademola Adeleke of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) against Oyetola’s victory.
WuzupNaija reported that INEC had declared Oyetola winner of the September 2018 election after a supplementary poll five days after the main election.
Oyetola’s election was however upturned by the Osun state election petition tribunal which declared Adeleke as the winner. The governor appealed the tribunal’s judgement and his prayers were granted when the Court of Appeal nullified the March 22 judgement of the tribunal.
The Supreme Court in a split judgement read by Justice Bode Rhodes-Vivour upheld Oyetola’s election as Osun governor.
Davido who was actively involved in the election campaign of Senator Adeleke said the judgement of the Apex Court destabilised him where he was clubbing in the United States.
