A chieftain of the New Nigeria People’s Party, (NNPP), Ambassador Olufemi Ajadi Oguntoyinbo, on Wednesday hailed the revelation of the Certified True Copy of the Court of Appeal judgement on the Kano state governorship election.
The NNPP chieftain in a statement made available to journalists declared that the Certified True Copy of the judgment had revealed that Governor Abba Yusuf appeal was upheld by the Court of Appeal.
Ambassador Ajadi while warning against turning Nigeria to a banana republic, accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of allegedly planning to destroy Nigeria through abracadabra and that Nigerians would not accept that.
“Contrary to the judgement read by the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja last Friday that dismissed the Appeal of Abba Yusuf against the ruling of the Tribunal judgement, the Certified True Copy of the judgement obtained has revealed that Yusuf’s appeal was upheld by the Court of Appeal”, he said.
The NNPP chieftain added, “The Appeal Court set aside Tribunal’s judgment, upholds the Appeal of Abba Yusuf, and even awarded cost against APC, where do they now see their victory. The Kano State issue has exposed many sins of the APC”.
“Nigeria is not a banana republic where anything goes. We are more enlightened and we will not allow the APC to turn law on its head. We are grateful to the judiciary for upholding the truth. I rejoice with my brother, Abba Yusuf on his victory, and all members of our party and residents of Kano State for their peaceful conducts in the face of huge provocation”.
Ambassador Ajadi maintained, “I implore Governor Abba Yusuf to concentrate on the delivering of dividends of democracy to the people of Kano State who willingly and voluntarily voted him into office”.
The NNPP chieftain congratulated the party, the Kano state governor, the presidential candidate of the party, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwakwanso and all party leaders and members for the deserved victory.
