The controversy over the eligibility of

Senator Ademola Adeleke to contest the

Osun governorship election has been put to

rest as an Akure Federal Court of Appeal has

by 11 AM today reaffirmed his qualification

and eligibility to contest the office.

The Akure Court of Appeal dismissed an

appeal against the judgement of Osogbo

High court which had confirmed the eligibility

of Senator Ademola Adeleke to contest for

the governorship of Osun state.The Osogbo

High Court had earlier ruled that Senator

Adeleke is qualified to contest for the

governorship having been educated up to

secondary school level.

The petitioners however proceeded to appeal

against the ruling ,insisting that the Senator

is not qualified and therefore Dr Akin

Ogunbiyi who is the second runner up at the

governorship primary should be declared the

winner of the primary.

The Akure Appeal court in its ruling

dismissed the appeal on three grounds

,affirming thprimary

ment of the lower court

that confirmed the eligibility of Senator

Adeleke.

The first ground was that the court has no

jurisdiction to hear the case .The second

was that the petitioner has no locus standi to

file the case and third was that the matter

was brought to court outside the stipulated

14 days after the conduct of the primary
