An Abuja Court of Appeal vacated the tribunal judgement that nullified the election of Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State

In a unanimous decision by a three-member panel of Justices, the appaliate court held that the appeal Adeleke lodged to challenge his sack by the Osun State Governorship Election petition Tribunal, was meritorious.

Aside from setting aside the judgement of the tribunal, the court, in its lead judgement that was delivered by Justice Mohammed Lawal, awarded #500,000 cost against the All Progressive Congress, APC and its candidate, Gboyaga Oyetola
