Election tribunal gives Edo to Oshiomhole

Guardian Newspapers: "FORMER Labour leader Adams Oshiomhole scored a major political victory yesterday as the Edo State gubernatorial election tribunal sitting in Benin City declared him the rightful winner of the April 14, 2007 governorship polls.
It was also a remarkable triumph for his party, the Action Congress (AC), as it claimed a second state, after Lagos.
