All Progressives Congress (APC) stalwart in Bauchi State, Muhammad Abbayo Gidado, has lauded the judgement of the Supreme Court, which on Thursday, October 26 affirmed the victory of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima in the 2023 presidential election.
Gidado described the apex court verdict as an affirmation of the popular mandate of the Nigerian people for the Tinubu/Shettima ticket of the APC as delivered at the poll on February 25, 2023.
A statement from the Media Unit of politician’s office said the APC chieftain heartily congratulated President Tinubu and Vice President Shettima on the resounding affirmation of their popular mandate by what he called a well-thought-out judgement of the Court.
Gidado noted that the court painstakingly evaluated all the issues raised by the petitioners and delivered a clear verdict on the integrity of Nigeria’s electoral process.
He asserted that it was clear to see for dispassionate observers that despite the challenges, Nigeria’s electoral process was making a steady progress and deserve the appreciation and support of all Nigerians and friends of Nigeria.
He, therefore, urged Nigerians to continue to support the Tinubu administration in its drive to deliver the Renewed Hope Agenda of the ruling APC.
“I applaud the judgement of the Supreme Court for upholding the victory of our President, His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and our Vice President, His Excellency, Kashim Shettima, at the 2023 presidential polls.
“I also congratulate our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), on its vindication by this well-thought-out landmark judgement.
“This judgement has expressly affirmed the popular mandate of the Nigerian people for our party the APC and its Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates, freely given at the February 2023 polls.
“As the Court has painstakingly addressed all the issues raised by the petitioners, I urge all concerned to accept the judgement and join hands with the Tinubu government in its bold efforts to secure the wellbeing of our people,” Gidado stated.
