Governor Ademola Adeleke

Oyeyemi, who was an ally of Governor Ademola Adeleke, was reportedly killed while attending a meeting convened as part of efforts to resolve the lingering dispute between rival factions over the control and management of motor parks in the state.

The development has triggered a fresh controversy over the post-election process in Osun State, coming after the APC candidate had congratulated Adeleke and the party's legal team had resolved not to challenge the election result in court.

The two petitions were displayed on the notice board of the Osun State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal Secretariat in Osogbo on Monday, formally setting the legal machinery in motion.
