  • Dancing senator, Adeleke to know fate over certificate suit on Wednesday

    Dancing senator, Adeleke to know fate over certificate suit on Wednesday

    An Osun High Court sitting in Osogbo has adjourned till Wednesday ruling in the certificate suit involving Senator Ademola Adeleke, the Peoples Democratic Party candidate in the September 22 governorship election in the state.

    The Presiding Judge, Justice David Oladimeji, adjourned proceedings on Monday after all parties had accessed the relevant documents.

    The News Agency of Nigeria reports that two members of the PDP in the state had approached the court for an interlocutory order setting aside the election of Adeleke as the PDP governorship flag bearer over alleged non-submission of his Secondary School leaving certificate.

    Adeleke was declared the winner in the PDP primary held on July 21 having polled 1,569 votes to beat his closest rival, Dr. Akin Ogunbiyi, who had 1,562.

    But the plaintiffs, Rasheed Olabayo and Oluwaseun Idowu, in the suit filed on July 24 sought an interlocutory order setting aside the election of Adeleke, arguing that he did not satisfy the constitutional requirements to contest the governorship election.

    The counsel to the plaintiffs, Mr Olufemi Ayandokun, had earlier told the court that the certificate tendered by Sen. Ademola Adeleke to INEC and the court was forged.

    He urged the court to take judicial notice of the date the certificate was issued and the year stated on it.

    The counsel argued that at the time the certificate was issued, Osun had not been created as a state.

    He described the certificate as fake.

    Ayandokun prayed the court to adopt and rely on the written address in support of the response to the notice of preliminary objections and asked the court to strike out the counter-affidavits.

    The Defence Counsel, Mr Edmund Boriomoni, told the court to also strike out the originating summons and the motion on notice for want of competency and jurisdiction.

    He said that another affidavit had earlier been filed for preliminary objection and a counter-affidavit for the originating summons.

    Boriomoni said there were 22 grounds, 48 paragraphs of affidavits and three exhibits marked in support of the affidavits and nine issues for determination.

    He urged the court to dismiss the suit filed against his client for lacking in merit.

  • Saraki sad ‘dancing-senator’, Adeleke won on PDP platform

    Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has expressed his sadness over Ademola Adeleke’s victory on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party.

    Recall that Adeleke, whose victory dance set the internet abuzz yesterday defected from the All Progressives Congress to run as the opposition party’s flagbearer in last weekend’s by-election.

    The Senate President made this known on Wednesday shortly after he had sworn-in the Adeleke as the Senator representing Osun-West.

    In a Facebook post, Saraki said though he is happy with Adeleke’s victory, he, however, was sad that he was not coming in as an APC Senator.

    He said it should serve as an eye-opener to the APC that the will of the people should always be respected.

    He said, “I was filled with emotions today as I swore in the brother of Late Senator Isiaka Adetunji Adeleke as Senator representing Osun West. I’m sure that my late friend, his family, good people of Ede and Osun West Senatorial District are delighted that the legacy of ‘Guv’ can continue.

    “I am sure my departed colleague will, in his grave, be happy and filled with joy today and always.

    “My only sadness is that Senator Ademola Adeleke is not coming in as an APC member. This is the result of mishandling of the pre-election matters by our party.

    “I hope Senator Ademola Adeleke will very soon return to his natural fold, the APC, where he rightly belongs.

    “I hope this development will serve as an eye opener to our party at all levels that the will of the people must always be respected. We all have a good lesson to learn from this.

  • I prefer a dancing senator to one that can’t control libido- Alibaba

    I prefer a dancing senator to one that can’t control libido- Alibaba

    Ace comedian. Alibaba has reacted to the viral video of Osun West senator-elect, Ademola Adeleke celebrating his victory at the just concluded senatorial by-election. In the video, Adeleke can be seen dancing excitedly as he is hailed by onlookers.

    Alibaba in his Instagram post said he prefers the senator’s dance to the antics of other senators who are wife beaters. He puts it this way:” So this Senator dances and that is your problem? What have we become? The Senate is filled with people who were elected through undemocratic processes. Some married under aged girls. There are those who left their state broke but left as billionaires. Wife beaters. The Distinguished Senator who still owed their workers before becoming senators. There are the ones that cannot even read talk less of contributing to legislative processes. Some cannot even string 3 sentences together.

    “Let’s not even talk about unbecoming characters. A few are upright in those hallowed chambers… but will the downright ugly let us feel the beauty of their thoughts? Naaaaa. Look at their history. What have they contributed to the Nigeria that they want to legislate for? BEN BRUCE chose entertainment. He stuck to it. And we can see the things he did. By himself. Mention others who are comparable to those ideals of “elected because of contributions to the growth of Nigeria?” FORMER GOVERNOR is no contribution. You used state money. And we are fixated on someone’s dance steps”?

    The revered showbiz expert also condemned Senators who enrich themselves with public funds and also have strings of girlfriends.

    Hear him:”I would rather he danced. At least I can see it as his weakness. What of the thieves that enrich themselves with public funds? Oh, it’s not a dance. A dance is sooooooooo grave. How dare he dance. But it’s ok if he has strings of girlfriends that are brought to his private party regularly? What has his dancing got to do with the laws he would make?

    “I would rather one Senator that dances than one that threatens to sleep with people’s wives! Or a senator who cannot sing the National Anthem! Or has more money than his working life can justify! Or one that knows teachers and pensioners have not been paid for over 6 months but collects his allowances and his salary unfailingly every 23rd of the month… plus community development allowance for projects we don’t see. This is how I see it, he can dance all he wants, as long as he is a Senator in that hallowed chambers. That’s all. So please… let him dance”

  • Osun West by-election: Ademola Adeleke emerges PDP candidate

    The younger brother of late Sen. Isiaka Adeleke, Demola, has emerged the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the Osun West Senatorial District bye-election.

    TheNewsGuru.com reports that Adeleke, who had been cleared to contest for the primary on the platform of APC, defected to PDP on Tuesday evening.

    Adeleke was set to contest the primary in APC unopposed after his opponent, Sen. Mudashiru Husain, was disqualified on Sunday by the APC screening committee headed by Zamfara Assembly Speaker, Sanusi Rikiji.

    Hussein was disqualified by the committee which stated that he was still in active public service against the stipulated party’s guideline.

    According to Rikiji, the party’s guideline stipulates that any aspirant that wants to contest an elective office is expected to have resigned from the public service 30 days before the primries.

    Hussein was the Commissioner for Cabinet Matters in the Rauf Aregbesola administration which was inaugurated on May 30.

    The disqualification was upheld by the Appeal Committee of the party headed by Abdulahi Bello.

    Hussein was, however, cleared on Monday evening by the National Working Committee of the APC to contest the primary.

    Adeleke, who contested the PDP primary unopposed on Wednesday in Iwo Local Government Area of the state, scored 343 votes.

    In his acceptance speech, Adeleke said the PDP would win the election.

    ” I accepted to contest the election under PDP and come July 8, we shall have victory.

    ” Victory shall be ours and nothing can stop us. We are moving forward because it is God’s project,’’ he said.

    The PDP Chairman in the state, Mr Soji Adagunodo, said the party would win the bye-election.

    According to him, there is no faction in PDP but only aggrieved members.

    ” We are going to win the election and come 2018, we will still win,’’ he said.

    TheNewsGuru.com recalls that Independent National Electoral Commission fixed July 8 for the bye-election following the vacuum created by the death of Sen. Adeleke on April 23.
