Basking in the euphoria of his victory at the Court of Appeal, Governor Ademola Adeleke has dedicated the victory to God and the good people of Osun State.
In a statement that he personally signed Governor Adeleke said: “I thank God Almighty and our good people of Osun state. I dedicate this victory to God and my people. This judgment confirmed my earlier position that the judgment of the Tribunal is a miscarriage of justice. The judiciary has right the wrongs of the lower court. This has rekindled the confidence of the nation in the integrity of the judiciary as the stabiliser of the judiciary and last hope of the common man.
“I am particularly glad that the Court of Appeal has ruled that the BVAS machine and voters register are the primary sources, not the report from the server. This has strengthened our democracy and removed a time bomb that the judgment of the Tribunal had planted for our democracy.
” I appreciate Osun people for standing by me and my party through repeated validation of my governorship mandate at the recent federal and state elections. My party won three straight elections from July 16th 2022 to the March 18th ,2023. It was a resounding vote of confidence in my governorship by the people of Osun state. The judiciary has now confirmed the will of the people that I am the validly elected governor of my state.
” My appreciation goes to the civil servants, artisans, market people, clerics,students, women, and youth. Osun people defended the mandate from 2022 to date.
“I commend the judiciary for resisting all pressure. Rule of law is strengthened when judgement affirms the will of the people. On behalf of Osun people and my party, the PDP, we appreciate the judiciary and the men of conscience on the bar and the bench.
“Let me use this opportunity to extend sincere hands of fellowship to former Governor Oyetola and the APC. Let build the state together. Let unite for the good of our people. The state needs leaders across party lines to join hands for robust and accelerated development of the state.
As brothers and sisters, we are all requested to start the process of healing. Forget party politics as the election is over. All members of the political class in Osun state should join hands with me to take our state to greater height.
Signed:
HE, Senator Ademola Adeleke,
Executive Governor of Osun State
