Supreme Court upholds Abiodun’s election as Ogun Governor

Gov Dapo Abiodun

The Supreme Court has dismissed the appeal filed by Mr Ladi Adebutu of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) challenging the election of Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State. 

Adebutu’s appeal contends that the election of Governor Abiodun did not comply with the electoral laws and he did not score the lawful majority votes. He was therefore asking the court to void his victory.

But on Friday, the apex court dismissed the appeal for lack of merit and affirmed Governor Abiodun’s win in the election.
