Tribunal: APC Resorting To Media Trial, PDP Alleges

As the fireworks at the election petition tribunal kick off, the Osun State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party has accused the All Progressives Congress and Governor Adegboyega Oyetola of resorting to media trial regarding their petition against the victory of Senator Ademola Adeleke in the July 16 governorship poll.

In a statement by the Osun PDP Director of Media and Publicity, Oladele ‘Bamiji,  in Osogbo on Wednesday, the party alleged that said APC, within one week, declared the state as unsafe to actualise its plan of moving the sitting of the tribunal against Adeleke’s victory to Abuja.

The party also alleged APC of sponsoring falsified election analysis by paid agents masquerading as election observers.

The statement read in part, “Media trial is an insult to the judiciary that has demonstrated readiness to discharge its responsibilities without fear or favour.

“We, therefore, charge Osun people to be on guard and be prepared to resist any plot by the APC to make a mess of our democracy with its incessant culture of stealing mandate”.
