Former Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola stated that there is ground for him and his party, the All Progressives Congress, APC, to approach the Supreme Court following Friday’s judgement of the Appeal Court.

Oyetola emphasised that his belief in the judiciary remains unshaken, while reacting to the Appeal Court judgement that overturned the Tribunal’s verdict that first resulted in the dismissal of Governor Ademola Adeleke.

In a statement released by his media assistant, Ismail Omipidan, Oyetola claimed that based on the judgment’s brief summary, there are solid ground to seek further redress at the Apex Court.

He appealed to members and supporters of the APC to remain calm and not to be discouraged over the outcome of the Friday’s appeal, saying his abiding faith in God to reclaim his mandate remains undoubted.

The statement partly reads; “We have heard the judgement of the Appeal Court, but we are yet to receive a copy of the judgement.

“However, from the snippets we are getting, we believe we have a potential ground to approach the Supreme Court. Our belief in the judiciary remains unshaken, just as my abiding faith in the God’s promise regarding the reclaim of my mandate remains undoubted.

“I, therefore, appeal to our supporters and party members to remain calm as we take the next step.”
