However, the counsel to Aiyedatiwa, his Deputy, Dr. Olayide Adelami, INEC, and other respondents led by Chief Wole Olanipekun, Tayo Oyetibo, and other array of lawyers, asked the Tribunal to dismiss the petition with substantial cost.

They said there was nothing substantial before the Tribunal to show irregularities. Also, they said there were no witnesses to prove electoral malpractice during the governorship election.

Justice Benson Ogbu-led Tribunal fixed June 4 for the final decision on the petitions filed by the opposition parties.
