Osun Guber: Justice Oyewole not on Osun Appeal Panel – Appeal Court
The Court of Appeal has put a lie to the claim by the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) that Justice Joseph Oyewole was part of the three-man panel to hear the appeal on the judgment in the Osun State governorship election dispute.
The court’s spokesperson, Mrs. Sa’adatu Musa Kachalla, said Justice Oyewole was never considered as a member of the panel.
Mrs. Kachalla described as uncharitable and unwarranted the attack on Justice Oyewole by the PDP.
She said: “Hon. Justice Joseph Oyewole, Justice of the Court of Appeal, Enugu Division, an industrious son of the Osun State, is not a member of the the Osun Governorship Election Appeal Tribunal set up by the President of the Court of Appeal, who had earlier said that the court must always put her integrity on the front burner .
“The members of the public are therefore advised not to be misguided by desperate and jittery individuals whose action is to heat up the polity.
“Time has changed, and it is better for us to change with time. The era of fake news is over.”
