The immediate past Governor of Ekiti State and President of the Forum of Regions of Africa, FORAF, Dr Kayode Fayemi, has congratulated the former Governor of Osun State, Gboyega Oyetola on his victory at the Osun State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal.
A statement on Friday signed by Mallam Ahmad Sajoh, Head of Fayemi Media Office, Abuja, quoted Fayemi saying that the tribunal decision reflected the will of Osun people.
The Tribunal in a split decision annulled the purported victory of Gov. Ademola Adeleke, stating that Oyetola of APC had the most valid votes in the gubernatorial election, which was held on June 16, 2022.
“I am happy with the tribunal’s decision and sure that it reflected the will and preference of the majority of the people of Osun State. I commend Governor Oyetola for using peaceful legal means to reclaim his mandate,” Fayemi said.
