The election result of Senator
Kashamu, representing the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) in Ogun East Senatorial District at the red chamber, was challenged by the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dapo
Abiodun in the last election.
Similarly, the APC challenged the result of
the House of Representatives election of Ijebu-East/Ijebu-North/Ogun Waterside,
which returned Adesegun Adekoya of the PDP as against Biyi Ismail of the APC.
The three man Tribunal headed by Justice Ebiowei Tobi, is also looking at the results of ten seats in the Ogun State House of Assembly, for which the tribunal had reserved judgments since August 3, when all Counsels adopted their written addresses.
