The Supreme Court has upheld the election of Kayode Fayemi as Governor of Ekiti State.
The Appeal Court had ruled against Fayemi in February, and the Supreme Court followed suit on Wednesday. In a unanimous judgment, a five-man panel of the apex court held that Oni’s appeal was statute-barred. Delivering the lead judgment, Justice Amiru Sanusi held that the case, being a pre-election one, was not commenced at the trial court, within the required time, as stipulated under the Forth Alteration Act.
