Senator representing Osun East, Francis Fadahunsi, has congratulated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his victory at the Supreme Court, expressing his belief in President Tinubu’s administration.
The Supreme Court last Thursday agreed with the September 6 verdict of the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC) on all counts. The seven-man panel of the apex court led by Justice Inyang Okoro, in a unanimous judgment, resolved the seven issues for determination in the appeals filed by the former vice president and Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar; and his Labour Party (LP), counterpart, Mr. Peter Obi, in favour of Tinubu .
The apex court, in its lead judgment, held that there was no merit in Atiku/PDP and Obi/LP’s petitions to nullify the outcome of the election.
The court equally refused to admit Atiku’s fresh evidence from the Chicago State University, CSU, which claimed that Tinubu submitted a forged certificate to the INEC.
Fadahunsi, in a statement personally signed on Sunday, and made available to newsmen, noted that the victory was an attestation to President Tinubu’s doggedness and sacrifice for building the nation’s democracy over the years in the interest of the people.
The statement reads in part: “I want to congratulate President Tinubu for the victory confirmed by the Supreme Court.
“I have faith in the President’s capacity and ability to help us build and steer the nation of our collective dreams and aspirations.
“I believe you will make us proud. I wish you God’s Wisdom to pilot and move our dear nation to Promise land.”
