In a unanimous decision, the tribunal dismissed Adebutu’s petition for “lack of merit” and affirmed Governor Abiodun’s election as declared by INEC.

Justice Kunaza stated that the allegations of corrupt practices, non-compliance with the Electoral Act, multiple thumbprinting of ballot papers, ballot stuffing, and forgery by Adebutu and his party were not proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

He also characterized the witnesses’ testimonies brought by the petitioners as “manufactured” and “unbelievable.”

Notable figures present in court included Ogun Deputy Governor, Senator Solomon Adeola, Senator Salisu Shuaib, Senator Gbenga Kaka, and others on the side of the APC, while Hon. Oladipupo Adebutu’s running mate and Ogun PDP chairman were present for the petitioners.
