OSUN ELECTION: PDP HEADS TO COURT OVER INCONCLUSIVE POLL


The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is approaching the court to contend the declaration of Saturday’s governorship election in Osun as inconclusive by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The party disclosed this in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, yesterday in Abuja.


According to Ologbondiyan, the Sept. 22 polls had already been concluded and results announced in all polling and the collation centres.

He also stated that since the exercise was brought to its lawful conclusion, INEC powers to declare the election inconclusive was removed.

He said the Electoral Law stated that once an election result was declared, INEC was bound to return a winner.

Ologbondiyan also said even if the state governorship election is conducted over and over again, the PDP will still win. (NAN)
