The Edo State gubernatorial election tribunal sitting in Benin this afternoon 20th Day of March, 2008, nullified the election of professor Osunbor and entered judgment in favour of Adams Oshiomhole the
immediate past president of the national union of textile workers and the ex-president of Nigerian Labour Congress NLC.
In a unanimous judgment spanning into 6hrs, the lead judge, dismantled the sham of an election conducted in Edo State, which according to the learned justices, was marred by violence, fraud and substantial compliance with acts unfit of a democratic process for change of government.
The citizens of Edo are in a festive mood, as they see this judgment as a gift from Osanobua, who has redeemed them from the wasted years of Lucky Igbenedion. Another source of the uncontrolled celebration in Benin is the death of godfatherism, as the now removed governor is believed to be a stooge of Mr. Fix, whom they believe unfixed Lucky and foisted Professor Osunbor on them.
Feelers from other parts of the country hails the judgment and praise the judiciary, whom they believe is doing a dance of shame, one step forward, two steps sideways and ten steps backwards. Be that as it may, Nigerians are rekindling their hopes in the election tribunal after the rape of justice in the presidential election tribunal, the ruling in Oyo State, and Imo State.
