Nigerian mega music star, David Adeleke fondly known as Davido has asked for God’s intervention ahead of a Supreme Court ruling which involves his uncle and governor of Osun, Ademola Adeleke, to be made the legitimate number one citizen of the state.

The Supreme Court has fixed May 9, 2023, to deliver a judgment in the July 16 governorship election tussle in Osun State. A five-member panel of Justices led by Justice John Okoro fixed the date after all the parties involved adopted their written briefs in the matter.

It should be recalled that the Court of Appeal, Abuja Division, had set aside the decision of the Osun State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal, which nullified the election of Senator Ademola Adeleke as Governor of Osun State.

Consequently, the Appellate Court affirmed Adeleke as the winner of the State’s governorship election of July 2022. (Daily Trust)
