The tribunal therefore dismissed the petition by the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate, Gboyega, Nasir saying it lacks merit.


Earlier report has it that there was heavy security mounted by a plethora of armed policemen, operatives of the Department of the State Security Service(DSS), Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps(NSCDC) including those on an Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) .


The three – man Tribunal headed by Justice Henry Olusiyi began sitting last May in respect of the petition filled by the governorship candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Gboyega Isiaka, challenging the victory of Governor Ibikunle Amosun.


Details later.
