All Progressives Congress (APC) has hailed the judgement of the Court of Appeal which upheld Gboyega Oyetola as the duly elected governor of Osun State.
Osun APC spokesman, Kunle Oyatomi, said in a statement on Thursday that the judgement has set the records straight over the true winner of the governorship election conducted in November 2018.
Part of the statement said: “APC won two of the three Senate seats; six of the nine Reps seats; and 23 of the 26 House of Assembly seats!!
“How then could we have lost the governorship election? We may not be able to explain what was behind Adeleke’s performance that he came so close in November.
“Although we won, Adeleke’s score sheet was inexplicably abnormal. In contrast to the election four months after, the opposition’s so-called victory would have been a farce.
“We believe it is time to move on and concentrate efforts on the transformation work that started in 2010 and which the people have mandated Gov. Gboyega Oyetola to continue and improve upon.”
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has vowed to appeal the judgement at the Supreme Court.
