The Osun State Election Petition Tribunal, yesterday, adjourned to Monday for pre-hearing conference report after concluding its pre-hearing proceeding while witnesses were expected to be called on October 26.

The tribunal also said 10 different motions were filed with responses and heard together by both the petitioners and respondents to include the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), INEC, and Ademola Adeleke, the governor-elect. The Chairman of the Tribunal, Justice Tertsea Kume, who ordered for an adjournment for pre-hearing conference report, said proper hearing would commence on October 26.

Earlier, counsel to Oyetola and the APC, Alhaji Lasun Sanusi (SAN), told the tribunal that he had responded to all motions filed and also adopted same on issues formulated. He, therefore, urged the court to discountenance some motions brought by the respondents, adding that there were inconsistencies on the claims of the respondents on election results.

He also urged the court to suspend its ruling on the judgement by a Federal High Court in Abuja, pending the decision of the appellate court. Also, counsel to the People Democratic Party, Dr Alex Izinyon (SAN), told the court not to entertain the application of the petitioners on some grounds, based on points of law.
