Ogun election: PDP presents Gov Abiodun’s jail record as evidence before election tribunal

On Wednesday, the Ogun State Peoples Democratic Party and its governorship candidate, Ladi Adebutu, appeared before the Ogun State Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal where they are contesting the election of Governor Dapo Abiodun. They presented an alleged jail booking record and incident report from the Florida Metropolitan Police, US.

On March 18, the Independent National Electoral Commission declared Abiodun the winner of the state’s governorship election.

The PDP and Adebutu, on the other hand, objected to the decision and asked the tribunal to nullify Abiodun’s election.

Chris Uche (SAN), the attorney for Adebutu and the PDP, asked Oyejide Sunkanmi, a prominent PDP youth leader in Ogun State, to testify against Abiodun during the hearing’s restart on Wednesday.

Oyejide mentioned a purported jail booking record and incident report from Florida Metropolitan Police, US, against Abiodun in his witness statement to which he was deposed.

The materials Uche submitted were accepted as evidence in favour of the PDP and Adebutu’s position.
