Osun election tribunal grants Gboyega Oyetola, APC access to election material
On Monday, the Osun Election Petition Tribunal in Osogbo gave Governor Gboyega Oyetola and the All Progressives Congress (APC) access to investigate materials used in the July 16 governorship election.

The tribunal also granted the plaintiffs' request to electronically scan the voters' register and election ballot papers used in the election.

While granting the plaintiffs' two motions (move ex parte), Justice Tertsea Kume, the tribunal's chairperson, ordered that Osun governor-elect Ademola Adeleke be called through'substitution of service of notice.'

The judge ordered that the summons be posted on the tribunal's notice board.

Earlier, Yomi Aliyu (SAN), the counsel to APC and Oyetola, while speaking on the two applications, said that every effort made by the court bailiff to serve Adeleke the notice of summon failed.

He said the bailiff went to his house at Aisu, Ede, but that the security guards turned the bailiff away after a call was made to someone in the house that directed them not to collect the summon notice.

He said the bailiff explained (in an affidavit presented) that his security was threatened when he went to serve Adeleke the summon notice at his home.

Aliyu prayed the tribunal to substitute the notice of service by pasting it on the notice board of the court.

Newsmen report that Oyetola and APC are plaintiffs in the suit challenging the victory of Adeleke at the governorship election.

Oyetola and APC joined the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as respondents in the suit.
