Ogun guber: Gov Abiodun wins in court

The Court of Appeal sitting in Ibadan, Oyo State today ruled on the governorship appeal involving Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and his challenger, Adekunle Akinlade of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM).

The court dismissed the appeal filed by Akinlade, upholding the decision of the lower tribunal. 

The tribunal sitting in Abeokuta, the state capital, had earlier dismissed Akinlade’s petition challenging the victory of the governor.

It was reported last week that the Appeal Court had reserved judgment on the appeal filed by Akinlade.
