The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, appealed to the Supreme Court on Thursday, seeking to have the former governor of Osun State, Gboyega Oyetola, and his deputy, Benedict Alabi, disqualified from running in the governor’s race on July 16, 2022 was rejected
Oyetola and Alabi were disqualified from running in the governor’s race by Justice Emeka Nwite of the Federal High Court in Abuja on the grounds that Mai Mala Buni, the interim chairman of the APC and the governor of Yobe State, had signed off on their nomination forms.
The Court of Appeal in Abuja overturned Justice Nwite’s decision in a decision from December of last year, and the PDP challenged that verdict to the Supreme Court.
