Justices of the Court of Appeal in Ibadan have declared the candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), Rauf Aregbesola, winner of the 2007 governorship election in Osun State and ordered that he be sworn in as governor by 12 noon tomorrow.
The judgment brings to end the Peoples Democratic Party government headed by Olagunsoye Oyinlola. Following the declaration of Mr Oyinlola as winner of the 2007 election, Mr Aregbesola went to court to challenge the Independent National Electoral Commission's decision.
Prior to the judgment, the two sides had argued their briefs at the last sitting of the court on November 1 when the five-member appeal panel, led by Clara Ogunbiyi reserved judgement on the matter.
There is already wild jubilation across Osun State and civil servants are noticed closing their offices to join in the celebration.
