Tribunal: Gov Sanwo-Olu Congratulates President Tinubu On His Judicial Victory
Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos state has congratulated President Bola Tinubu on his victory at the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal.
Sanwo-Olu has described the tribunal ruling that was in Tinubu’s favour as ‘another well-deserved victory’.
In a statement issued in Lagos by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Gboyega Akosile, on Wednesday, the governor said Nigerians had earlier spoken through the ballots while the tribunal has also validated their decision through judicial pronouncements.
Sanwo-Olu said millions of Nigerians were not in doubt as regard the mandate freely given to President Tinubu to be in charge of the affairs of the country for four years based on his track record and laudable achievements as governor of Lagos state.
‘What we are witnessing today is the beauty of democracy and the rule of law. We had an election in February this year where over eight million Nigerians voted to elect Bola Tinubu as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
We ordinarily thought that the losers should have displayed the good spirit of sportsmanship by congratulating the winner (President Tinubu) but they chose to contest the election results, which is within their rights. Now that the election and the results have been upheld by the Court. I hope they will do the needful.
I congratulate the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, President Bola Tinubu on his well-deserved victory at the Presidential Election Tribunal.
I also congratulate the leadership and members of our great party, the All Progressives Congress, and all Nigerians at home and in the Diaspora on this very landmark judicial victory’ he said.
The governor urged Nigerians across party divides to support Tinubu as he delivers the real dividends of democracy to Nigerians through the ‘Renewed Hope Agenda’-Team@orientactualmags.com
