Tribunal sacks Ondo lawmaker


The election of Hon Nelson Akinsuroju, representing Ileoluji/Okeigbo constituency in the Ondo House of Assembly has been nullified. 

Hon Akinsuroju was elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress(APC). 

He was declared winner after polling 10,207 votes against 9287 votes polled by the PDP candidate. 

His election was nullified after the tribunal declared the March 18th, 2023 election in Ile-Oluji/Okeigbo Constituency was inconclusive. 

The tribunal, in the judgment in the petition filed by candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, Babatunde Fadare, ordered re-run election in six out of 27 polling units. 

Fadare challenged election in 27 polling units out of 191 polling units in the constituency. 

Chairman of the three-man panel Justice Rose Soji, ordered a rerun in six affected polling units.

Counsel to Akinsuroju, Remi Olatubora, said the judgement was based on morality of the case and not competence of the results. 

He said “the judgment shall be studied and shall be appealed within the stipulated timeframe, as stated in the Electoral Act of 2022.” 

The sacked lawmaker called for calm and assured the people that, their mandate would be protected.
