Senator Iyiola Omisore
The
Election Petitions Tribunal hearing matters arising from August 9
governorship election in Osun State on Tuesday admitted the ballot
papers used in the conduct of the election.
The tribunal, headed by Justice Elizabeth
Ikpejime, admitted the documents brought in sacks as evidence tendered
by the petitioner, Senator Iyiola Omisore of the Peoples Democratic
Party. However, he reserved ruling on their admissibility until the
judgment stage.
The tribunal had subpoenaed the Resident
Electoral Commissioner in the state to produce original ballot papers
used in the 17 local government areas under dispute.
The materials were brought in 10 pick-up
vans on Monday and the lead counsel for the petitioner, Dr. Alex Izinyon
( SAN), called the United States-based forensic data analysis expert,
Mr. Pius Bakare, who tendered the documents.
