Biodun Esan, Ilorin
Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of Kwara State has congratulated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on the reaffirmation of his electoral victory by the Supreme Court.
The governor, in a statement signed on Thursday in Ilorin, also commended the judiciary for the courage to stand with the constitution in the face of obvious provocation and intimidation.
The statement reads in part; “I send hearty congratulations to His Excellency President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on the reaffirmation of his electoral victory by the Supreme Court today.
“The judgement is yet another testament to the fact that the February 25 Presidential Election represented the wishes of the largest majority of Nigerians who participated in the civic duty.
“I also congratulate our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), for the victory which is a triumph of truth over fact-free claims.
“I commend the judiciary for the courage to stand with the constitution in the face of obvious provocation and intimidation. This judgement has elevated the cause of jurisprudence in our country”.
The governor therefore expressed his belief that the verdict of the Supreme Court would further strengthen the will of the President to bring renewed hope to the people of Nigeria.
“I urge everyone to support Mr. President in his efforts to build a prosperous country,” AbdulRazaq added.
