An APC Chieftain in Ife South Local Government of Osun State, Hon. Najeem Oyewumi, has congratulated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his victory at the election petition tribunal, which delivered judgment in his favour on Wednesday.
The idealplusgist.com reports recalls that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and Labour Party and its candidate, Peter Obi had approached the tribunal challenging the victory of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its candidate in the February, 2023 Presidential election.
In the judgment, the five tribunal justices dismissed all the grounds of the petition and struck it out in its “entirety”.
Oyewumi in his reaction to the judgment, told Idealplusgist reporter in a telephone interview that he was happy on the development, saying, “it is a victory for Nigerians and democrats”.
“Sometimes when I read comments and opinions either in the social media or in the conventional media, I laugh and laugh because most people don’t know much about law and how it operates.
“Facts are sacred and law is not emotion-driven. I am absolutely delighted that justice has been done and we in the ruling party, have been vindicated that truly, Nigerians gave us their mandate.
“I have to congratulate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the whole of the Nigerian people on this very special landmark judgment.
“It will go down in history as one of the best and will also serve its cause in our law jurisprudence. I’m happy and so are millions of Nigerian masses, who trust and believe in this administration,” he said
