>>
>> There were also reports of skirmishes between supporters of Rauf
>> Aregbesola and those of deposed PDP governor, Olagunsoye Oyinlola, in Ikirun

>>
>> The panel ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission to issue a

>>
>> ABUJA, Nov 26, (THEWILL) - The Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) today said
>> the judgement of the Court of Appeal on the Osun gubernatorial election has
>> struck a final, deadly blow against election riggers, who must now be
>> consigned into where they belong - the dustbin of history.
>>
>> In a statement issued in Lagos by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji
>> Lai Mohammed, the party said its victory is particularly sweet music for all
>> democrats, who have continued to fight to wrest Nigeria from the deadly
>> cabal of election riggers, who have made Osun state their base.
>>
>> ''Osun, under the grip of the electoral marauders, became a euphemism for
>> election rigging with bravado. Even with a questionable mandate, they
>> carried on as if they were indeed elected by the people of the state. Osun
>> lost more people to the 2007 elections than any other state. Dislodging the
>> marauders, therefore, is a succour of sorts to the families of those who
>> were killed in the process of what will rank among the worst cases of
>> electoral brigandage in our country's history.
>>
>> ''We also recall that the marauders in Osun provided the men and material
>> for the rigging of the gubernatorial re-run in Ekiti.
>>
>> “At a stage, they even resorted to the use of police helicopter to ferry
>> their generals and their arsenals to Ekiti to further terrorize the people
>> of the state.
>>
>> ''Now, the forces of evil and darkness have finally lost their grip. It is
>> a good opportunity for Nigerians to use the chance presented by next year's
>> general elections to send the marauders cascading down the bottomless pit of
>> shame and oblivion,'' it said.
>>
>> ACN thanked the judiciary for putting an end to the long-running case on
>> electoral brigandage in Osun, and for once again giving hope to Nigerians
>> who, at times, wondered whether the forces of evil can be defeated, due to
>> their sheer bravado.
>>
>> ''Nigerians should now know that even if a lie travels at the speed of
>> sound for one thousand years, truth will eventually catch up with it. This
>> is a lesson for them never to give up in the pursuit of justice, as long as
>> they believe their cause is just. It is also a great confirmation that our
>> country, Nigeria, is indeed redeemable and can indeed be extricated from the
>> stranglehold of the rapacious cabal of election riggers.
>>
>> ''We know that at a stage during the battle to regain our mandate, many
>> questioned the rationale of expending so much time, energy and resources on
>> what they considered a lost cause. But our victory today has proved that no
>> amount of money is too much to spend in the pursuit of justice,'' the party
>> said.
>>
>> It also commended the media for keeping the issue on the front burner, long
>> after many have become weary from the antics of the marauders, and to all
>> Nigerians for their moral support.
>>
>> ''In particular we thank our supporters, who waited patiently for this day.
>> They remained unwavering, even after being subjected to the worst form of
>> persecution and provocation. We salute them!,'' ACN said.
>>
>> The party congratulated the good people of Osun, who will now have the
>> opportunity, like their counterparts in the other states where ACN holds
>> sway, to enjoy the long-awaited dividends of democracy.

>>
>> Today, Friday November 26, 2011 is another gloriously blessed day in the
>> annals of Nigeria, South-West Yorubaland and its immediate neighborhood,
>> and for the ACN and its progressive sister Labour! With the unperturbed
>> Lagos, we now have Ondo, Edo, Ekiti and Osun in progressive, with Delta to
>> be resolved later in February 2011, Oyo and Ogun will be picked up in April
>> 2011. Before you know it, the fever will jump across the Niger and the
>> Benue - and a New Nigeria will be born, led by Western and Mid-Western
>> Nigeria of the Great Awo, to the utter chagrin of Obasanjo!
>>
>> Yes o!
>>
>> This verdict was long coming. In fact, since the disclosure of the
>> outrageous sub-rosa inside-court text-messaging between a judge Justice
>> Thomas Damar Naron (and possibly other members of the tribunal) and
>> Oyinlola's lawyer Kunle Kalejaiye (SAN), one wondered what else was left to
>> the tattered case of Oyinlola.
>>
>> In recent months, the body language of Oyinlola also exhibited an "I don't
>> care" attitude, with his golfing expeditions to South America and so on.
>>
>> Finally, this will put an end with immediate effect to the 2011
>> gubernatorial ambitions of Senator Iyiola Omisore. That matter alone will
>> bring instant relief more to millions of PDP folk who have dreaded their
>> inability to save the inevitability of his candidacy (apparently with royal
>> blessing) in the forthcoming elections, than to the millions of others of
>> silent Osun indigenes who had also been dreading the Omisore political
>> machine.
>>
>> That machine has now stuttered to a stop under judicial hammer.
>>
>> Congratulations, fellow Engineer Rauf Aregbesola, new Governor of Osun
>> State! Seeing ya' at Oke-Fia Government House, Osogbo soon and in the
>> forthcoming four years!
>>
>> And there you have it.

http://www.osundefender.org/?p=92>> Kalejaye gate Is An Albatross On Oyinlola’s Neck
>>
>> IT is surprising that in spite of the revelation of criminal manipulation
>> of the Osun State Election Petitions Tribunal particularly the one headed by
>> the controversial Justice Thomas Damar Naron, allegedly carried out by
>> Otunba Kunle Kalejaye (SAN), Governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola has neither shown
>> remorse nor repentance.
>>
>> The call logs of Governor Oyinlola, Kalejaye and Justice Thomas Naron
>> published by TheNews magazine last month are too revealing and damning to
>> the integrity of any administration. For Oyinlola to be pretending and
>> carrying on as if nothing happened shows that his conscience is either dead
>> or he lacks moral scruple to realise that the game is over for his inept
>> administration.
>>
>> In a twist of fate that Oyinlola is complaining that the Action Congress
>> (AC) petitioned against the sleaze he committed. The unavoidable
>> interpretation of Kalejayegate scandal leaves all rational thinkers with the
>> conclusion that it was after the Justice Naron was obviously compromised by
>> Oyinlola’s legal team towards the end of last year that it rejected our
>> application that the world renowned forensic expert, Mr. Adrian Forty be
>> allowed to testify and give evidence in support of the scanning of ballot
>> papers used for the last governorship poll.
>>
>> IT remained the pattern since the end of last year till the compromised
>> Tribunal refused to disqualify itself and ruled unjustly in favour of
>> Oyinlola against Rauf Aregbesola without considering the mountain of
>> evidence we presented before it.
>>
>> Governor Oyinlola should realise that it is no longer possible for him to
>> execute his agenda of compromising the judiciary as he did to that of
>> Justice Thomas Naron. As we await the Court of Appeal to decisively deliver
>> its verdict on the electoral malfeasance, vote robbery, murder of AC polling
>> agents by agents of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on April 14, 2007
>> elections day, we challenge Oyinlola to explain the source(s) of the
>> following ballot papers used by the Independent National Electoral
>> Commission (INEC) to rob Engineer Rauf Aregbesola of victory.
>>
>>
>> The ballot papers are in the following categories:
>>
>> a. 41 per cent of the 224,695 ballot papers used to declare Governor
>> Oyinlola as winner by INEC were product of incontestable multiple
>> thumb-printing;
>>
>> b. Ballot papers meant for Ondo State not only questionably found their
>> ways into Osun State but were indeed part of the 426,669 votes credited for
>> the stolen Governor of Osun State;
>>
>> c. 113,311 ballot papers used to declare Oyinlola by INEC in 10 Local
>> Governments were not supplied by INEC on the Schedule of Distribution of
>> Ballot Papers (Form EC40c/EC25 it release officially. They were completely

>>
>> d. 88,092 ballot papers used to declare Oyinlola were those obtained from

>>
>> e. The forensic examination also revealed that 117,439 ballot papers from

>>
>> f. Why was Kalejaye, the lead Counsel to Governor Oyinlola calling the

>>

>> of justice and waged a decisive war on evidence and facts.
>>
>> Has Governor Oyinlola forgotten that throughout the sittings of the Naron
>> Tribunal, his legal team objected to the subpoena issued on INEC to testify
>> on the elections it conducted? Once the subpoena was brought before the
>> Tribunal, Kalejaye and his comrades in judicial pervertion would object and
>> the Tribunal will rule in their favour.
>>
>> Kalejayegate scandal has established for posterity that when a Tribunal
>> hides under legal technicality to reject vital evidences as Justice Naron
>> has done in Osun State, the wheel of jurisprudence can no longer grind
>> towards the final point of justice.
>>
>> WHAT Governor Oyinlola secured on July 15, 2007 was judgement without
>> justice. Kalejayegate scandal has confirmed our suspicion that the Tribunal
>> was compromised and could not have been relied upon to do justice.
>>
>> Governor Oyinlola must stop laying claims to his blood-soaked mandate and
>> tell the whole world how he won his election in clear contravention of the
>> Nigerian laws and universally accepted democratic practices. The people of
>> Osun State voted for Rauf Aregbesola on April 14, 2007 as their Governor.
>> The impostor should stop complaining that the people of Osun State are
>> demanding justice which Oyinlola’s criminal car gifts have not been able to
>> avert.
>>
>> Equally, we must let the whole world know that our witnesses have testified
>> on how Governor Oyinlola personally snatched ballot boxes assisted by his
>> aides in Oyan town, Odo-Otin Local Government on April 14, 2007 in clear
>> violation of the Electoral Law, 2006 while his Commissioners including the
>> incumbent Attorney-General, Mr. Niyi Owolade led thugs to disrupt the poll.
>>
>> For Oyinlola to pretend and carry on as if all is well smacks of treason
>> and commission of crimes against humanity. He must be checked and stopped in
>> his track immediately. He must know that the Kalejayegate scandal; the
