The Osun State Police Command says security has been beefed up in the state to prevent any breakdown of law and order ahead of Friday’s Supreme Court’s judgement on the 2018 Osun governorship election.
The command’s spokesperson, DSP Folashade Odoro, told journalists that the police was fully prepared for the outcome.
The tribunal on March 22 declared Adeleke as the winner of the election, but the judgment was later overturned by the Appeal Court on May 9. The case has, however, moved to the Supreme Court for final judgement and the court is set to rule on the matter on July 5.
