198

President Tinubu has welcomed the judgment of the Tribunal with an intense sense of solemn responsibility and preparedness to serve all Nigerians, irrespective of all diverse political persuasions, faiths, and tribal identities.

The President, in a statement released by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, recognized the diligence, undaunted thoroughness, and professionalism of the five-member bench, led by Justice Haruna Tsammani in interpreting the law and assured Nigerians of his renewed and energized focus on delivering his vision of a unified, peaceful and prosperous nation

Following the judgment by the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal on Wednesday in Abuja, the President affirmed that his commitment to the rule of law, and the unhindered discharge of duties by the Tribunal, as witnessed in the panel’s exclusive respect for the merits of the petitions brought forward, further reflects the continuing maturation of Nigeria’s legal system, and the advancement of Africa’s largest democracy at a time when Nigeria’s democratic system of government is under test in other parts of the continent.

According to the President, political parties and presidential candidates that have lawfully exercised their rights by participating in the 2023 general elections and the judicial process, that followed, have affirmed Nigeria’s democratic credentials, urging his valiant challengers to inspire their supporters in the trust that the spirit of patriotism will now and forever be elevated above partisan considerations, thereby manifesting into support for the government in improving the livelihood of all Nigerians.

Pres. Tinubu while expressing his profound gratitude to Nigerians for the mandate given to him to serve the nation, promised to meet and exceed their expectations through diligent hard work with the team already in place for that sole purpose.
