An election petitions tribunal in
Osogbo, Osun state has removed Bamidele Salam as a member of the house of
representatives, representing Ede
federal constituency.
The tribunal nullified the
election of Salam, who is a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), on
the grounds of electoral malpractices.
It cancelled results from certain
units in four local government areas in the constituency and ordered a rerun election in those areas.
The panel also declared the state
assembly election in Obokun state constituency inconclusive, removing Adewumi
Adeyemi, a member of the PDP, was declared winner of the election.
It also ordered a rerun election
in four units where the exercise was cancelled. But it upheld the election of
Mulikat Abiola, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as member
representing Ifelodun state constituency.
