Sunday Musings: That Osun/Adeleke/Oyetola Court Judgment - By Bolaji Aluko

Anybody following the Osun tribunal proceedings in real time must have had a feeling that something was wrong somewhere, and that many polling units would eventually be cancelled. Adeleke being  from Ede, we were being regaled with admitted systemic problems in that Ede axis during and after the elections, and virtually all the 744 polling units with problems eventually cancelled for all candidates involved, not just Oyetola and Adeleke, were in that axis. Leading up to the judgment, what was not clear was that: 1.  Enough cancelled votes  would lead to the  up-turning of  the present winner.  I suspected this to be so ahead of time. 2.  The  Judges would be split in their decision.  This may be the real howler, at the end of the day. But it gives  Adeleke hope that he may yet dance in final victory, since  the last fat person  - the Supreme Court - has not sung yet, since a split decision  at lower court  can split t...

There have been crisis ahead of 2022 in Ekiti State chapter of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) as a group said to be loyal to the former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose have split  and had consequently resulted in verbal attacks over a comment made by Fayose which indicated his plan to disengage his Former Deputy, Professor Olusola Eleka from contesting the 2022 governorship in the state. Fayose was recently quoted to have said, "There will be no 'South Agenda' in Ekiti 2022", saying the rotational arrangement in the party was not only undemocratic but also unconstitutional.  He maintained that, " On Ekiti Agenda We Stand'. Any Other Agenda is self serving and negates our collective interest and fair representation. It is sponsored by weak and narrow minded politicians and driven by political extortionist." Fayose had, in 2018, in a failed mission, unilaterally fielded Professor Eleka, who is from the South Senatorial District of the state, f...

Wife of Ekiti State Governor, Erelu Bisi Fayemi has said she has no interest in the senatorial seat in Ekiti North as been circulated since the early hours of today.  She wrote: Dear friends, This morning, I woke up to see posters online for Erelu Bisi Fayemi, Senate Ekiti North. This information has been circulating for some time now so it is nothing new. Today's poster was however released the morning after Mr Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji (BAO) emerged as Gubernatorial Candidate for the next Governorship election in Ekiti State. Those behind this mischief have been floating the narrative that the Senatorial seat is going to be my reward for supporting Mr Oyebanji's aspiration. My position is as follows: 1. I have no interest whatsoever in contesting for a Senatorial seat. I have never discussed this with anyone and how this story keeps circulating is a mystery. Let me repeat, I am not interested. 2. My sole political agenda in Ekiti State is to support my husband, HE Dr Kayode Fay...
