It means it is a dissenting judgement,and the judgement of the other judges will take precedence.ġ Like Re: Tribunal Chairman Disagrees To Judgement Declaring Adeleke Winner Of Osun Guber by Excelboi( m): 8:08pm On Mar 22, 2019 The OP did rightly pointed out that THE CHAIRMAN OF THE TRIBUNAL disagreed with the judgement of the other two judges.

I'm just a lawyer talking from the angle of law!ĭid you read the article or you were just eager to comment. Appeal and supreme court can have a different opinion on the matter.Time will tell on Osun election crisisģ Likes 1 Share Re: Tribunal Chairman Disagrees To Judgement Declaring Adeleke Winner Of Osun Guber by Yareema22( m): 8:06pm On Mar 22, 2019 I will not congratulate either of them until the judgement is given by Supreme court in July. The appeal will now decide if the tribunal erred in declaring Adeleke winner and if it erred in saying Oyetola is the winner. One is saying supplementary is unconstitutional while another one is saying the only constitutional option for the tribunal is supplementary.Ģ Likes Re: Tribunal Chairman Disagrees To Judgement Declaring Adeleke Winner Of Osun Guber by ejimatic: 8:02pm On Mar 22, 2019 The main judgment of the panel had invalidated the rerun election of Septemwhich returned Governor Gboyega Oyetola as winner and withdrew the certificate of return issued to him by INEC. The chairman however adviced INEC to only comply with the majority decisions concurrently delivered by Justices Peter Chudi Obiorah and Adegboye Ayinla Gbolagunte. He added that under Section 140(3) of the Electoral Act, where substantial non compliance is proved, the tribunal can only order a supplementary or fresh election. He further ruled that where it is established that there is non compliance, the tribunal does not have “the powers to subtract the votes of the non compliance and declare a candidate winner.” Justice Sirajo ruled that the petitioners failed to prove the claims at the tribunal. Justice Muhammed Ibrahim Sirajo on Friday dismissed the petition by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its governorship candidate, Ademola Adeleke, which alleged that there was election non-compliance with the Electoral Act in the election. The chairman of the Osun State Elections Petitions Tribunal in Abuja has delivered a dissenting judgement in the Osun State governorship election petition. I'm just a lawyer talking from the angle of law! Thanks a lot for the explanation, I was already confused Re: Tribunal Chairman Disagrees To Judgement Declaring Adeleke Winner Of Osun Guber by wideawaken01: 7:57pm On Mar 22, 2019

CHAIRMAN NAME LOST JUDGMENT PRO
Mind you I'm neither pro APC or Pro PDP in national level. That's why some uninformed people are thinking that for the so called Acting CJN Buhari sworn in illegally will help Buhari during judgment, if other judges dissent from declaring Buhari winner and the So called Acting CJN upheld the judgment during Atiku vs Buhari appeal, nothing the Acting CJN can do, majority carries the day. Op, to counter your article and to those who wish to learn, where a judgment is been delivered and there are 3 judges like in this Osun case, where two judges are of the same view and one is against it, the majority carries the vote so the chairman view doesn't change anything.Įven if it's at the Supreme Court, and the Chief Justice is dissenting and two others are agreeing, those agreeing carries the day.
