Omooba Dotun Babayemi,the legally recognized governorship candidate of the Osun State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has insisted of not being disturbed by the list released by the Independent National Electoral Commission for the state July 16 gubernatorial polls.

Babayemi maintained that he has unshakable faith in the ongoing legal process, assuring that the will of the people would prevail and he would be vindicated at the end of the day.,

Reacting to the INEC list through a statement issued by his Media Office,he stressed that the list released was a product of a calendar of a defined process which could not be termed final, pointing out that by INEC’s timetable,”16th June,2022, is the last day for publication of the final list of nominated candidates by the Commission”

“There’s nothing final about the list and I’m sure that somebody somewhere knows that.It’s only the uninformed that can think it’s the end of the process,because it’s on INEC’s timetable; the list published is just the submission by various parties. Fortunately, there’s a window of opportunity provided by the new Electoral Act and that’s what we are exploring because we believe in the rule of law.Everything you are seeing are tailor-made processes which are amenable to changes when the need arises on account of judicial pronouncements” Babayemi further clarified

The governorship hopeful assured the good people of Osun that he would triumph at the court,noting that INEC as an agency of government,respects the rule of law and would act accordingly when the court makes it pronouncements on the issues at hand.

Babayemi then appealed to the people of the state,especially PDP members to remain calm and not to take laws into their hands; assuring,”The case of Osun PDP is sub judice and not final.
