The Election Petitions Tribunal hearing has sacked Ademola Adeleke from being the Governor of Osun state and ruled in favor of Adegboyega Oyetola.
Justice Tetsea Kume, while delivering a majority decision, declared that the Independent National Electoral Commission did not comply substantially with the constitution and the provisions of the Electoral Act.
The judge removed the over-voting in some areas which brought the votes down to 314, 921 for Oyetola and 290, 266 for Adeleke.
