S/Court Judgment Saves The Day For PDP In Ondo State

People Democratic Party, PDP, governorship candidate in the October
20, 2012 election in Ondo State, Chief Olusola Oke, has hailed the
judgment of the Federal Court of Appeal, sitting in Akure, which
quashed the ruling of Ondo State Governorship Election Petition
Tribunal.
He described it as another signal that Nigerian judiciary has men of
impeccable character, who are determined to ensure that justice is
done at all times.
Oke, in a statement by his Special Adviser, Media and Publicity, said
the justices of the Federal Court of Appeal had shown that the
judiciary was capable of regulating itself thereby saving the common
man from arbitrary justice.
He had earlier approached the Appeal Court to challenge the February
ruling of the Tribunal which struck out the name of PDP as a part of
his Petition on account of its name being signed for by Mr. Chris
Omotuyi, state Director of Organisation of the party, whom the
tribunal ruled was incompetent and defective.
