By Saidu Idris

365Daily – The Federal High Court sitting in Osogbo has affirmed Senator Ademola Adeleke as the authentic candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the July 16 governorship election in Osun State.

This was contained in a judgment made by Justice Nathaniel Emmanuel on Wednesday, May 18, 2022, while delivering a ruling in a suit filed by a factional candidate of the PDP, Prince Dotun Babayemi.

Babayemi had sought the court to declare him as the authentic candidate of the PDP for the Osun gubernatorial election based on the result of parallel primaries held on March 9.

In his judgment which lasted over an hour, Justice Emmaniel declared the election of Babayemi null and void.
