2023: Hon. John Adisa Oke congratulates OShine, Ibarapa Kan on Appeal Court victory

In a pivotal legal triumph for the constituents of Ibarapa Central/Ibarapa North and Iseyin/Iwawoja/Itesiwaju Federal Constituencies in Oyo State, the Court of Appeal, seated in Lagos, has upheld the election of Hon. (Dr) Anthony Adebayo Adepoju, also known as Ibarapa Kan, and Hon. Oyeshina Oyedeji, referred to as Oshine, as members of the House of Representatives.

This significant judgment, delivered on Friday, has resoundingly dismissed the appeal lodged by the candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC), underscoring the credibility and legitimacy of the elections in these constituencies.

The Court’s decision not only secures the mandates of Hon. Adepoju and Hon. Oyedeji but also reaffirms the democratic choice made by the people of Ibarapa Central/Ibarapa North and Iseyin/Iwawoja/Itesiwaju Federal Constituencies. It underscores the importance of adhering to the will of the electorate in a democratic society.

In response to this legal victory, Hon. John Adisa Oke, a prominent political figure in Ogbomoso, has extended his warm congratulations to OShine and Ibarapa Kan. He praised their dedication to public service and their commitment to representing the interests of their constituents diligently.

Hon. Oke commented, “This Court of Appeal victory is not just a win for OShine and Ibarapa Kan, but a triumph for the people of Ibarapa Central/Ibarapa North and Iseyin/Iwawoja/Itesiwaju Federal Constituencies. It reinforces our faith in the democratic process and ensures that the voices of the people are heard.”

The court’s verdict is expected to have far-reaching implications for the political landscape in Oyo State, and it serves as a testament to the strength of the legal system in upholding the integrity of elections.
