The Supreme Court today affirmed the August 9th 2014 election of Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun state. The state PDP Governorship candidate Senator Iyiola Omisore had approached the apex court to vacate the previous ruling of the Court of Appeal and the Osun state Election Tribunal that had upheld the election of Aregbesola. Omisore asked the court to declare him winner of the election, accusing Mr Aregbesola and his party, APC of engaging in electoral malpractice during the election.
