Re:Aregbesola Ask for A Rerun Attention is drawn to a statement purportedly credited to Ogbeni Rauf Adesoji Aregbesola in Tribune Newspapers of Monday, 20th October, 2014 in his Reply to the petition filed by Otunba Iyiola Omisore and the PDP challenging the victory of Ogbeni at the August 9th Governorship wherein they said Ogbeni prayed for a Rerun. My initial reaction to such bunkum was a mute indifference until it is now getting more attention from the PDP cyber rodents which is being used to cover whatever calamity that had befall them with the dissolution of the Election Petition Tribunal Panel which has been replaced by a brand new panel. There was nothing like rerun prayer in any of the reply filed by either the APC or Ogbeni Rauf Adesoji Aregbesola. For the avoidance of doubt, the lone prayer in the petition is here under reproduced: WHEREOF in all the foregoing premises, amongst others, the 2nd Respondent denies in their entirety all the prayers of the Petitioners as set out in all of paragraph 59 (i - v) on pages 174 and 175 of the petition and will urge the Honourable Tribunal to dismiss the petition with substantial costs for being unmeritorious, frivolous, vexatious, ill-conceived and an abuse of court process. It is standing logic on its head for a respondent to ask for alternative prayer in any reply. The responsibility for alternative prayer rest squarely on the shoulder of the petitioner to achieve the purpose of either calling for fresh election in case his declaration as winner will be an impossibility. People should disregard this statement from those whose trademark is to spread falsehood in order to remain relevant despite glaring rejection by the good people of our dear state. We implore the gentlemen of the press to be wary of news coming from PDP in the State of Osun as that has brought nothing but embarrassment to their organisation when it was discovered that most of their news are tissue of lies. People should disregard every rumour and lies being churned out by the PDP and their cyber rodents as nothing will derail us from the path of growth and development. Osun A Dara.
