Saraki and Others Challenge Osun Governorship Election in a Protest

Leaders of the main opposition party, PDP, are currently protesting at the headquarters of the electoral commission, INEC.

The protesters are demanding the cancellation of the recent re-run governorship election in Osun State and the declaration of the PDP candidate, Ademola Adeleke, as winner.

Mr Adeleke lost to Gboyega Oyetola of the All Progressives Congress in the Osun governorship election after a controversial rerun exercise in seven polling units.

The Friday protest is led by Senate President Bukola Saraki, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal and others.
