PRESIDENT TINUBU HAD NO Phone Discussion WITH CJN-THE COURTS Ought to BE Let Be TO DO THEIR Work
We have become mindful of a firmly devilish and deliberately deceptive tweet by one Mr Jackson Ude. He claimed that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu was in phone discussion with the Central Justice of Nigeria, Olukayode Ariwoola, in which the CJN purportedly told the President and APC to plan for an official political race rerun.
It is upsetting and despicable for Mr Ude to create a lie of this sort on a question of serious public significance that is effectively under survey by the Presidential Election Petitions Court (PEPC).
President Tinubu and our Party won the last Official political race definitely, and have no need to take part in side discussions with the CJN in regards to forthcoming petitions before the PEPC. As the center liberal that he is, the President regards the right of wronged Up-and-comers in the political race to look for change for any complaints that they may have. The Constitution and Electing Act give powerful assurances of that right..
The PEPC ought to be managed the cost of the reality to perform its significant established and legal obligation of mediating what’s more, conveying a decision regarding this situation without unnecessarily raising doubt about the uprightness of our Appointed authorities.
Misrepresentation and guess by any semblance of Mr. Ude just plan to kindle political interests, raise issue and frenzy, and prudently sabotage the decision of the Courts in this significant matter.
We are sure that Nigerians are more brilliant from there, the sky is the limit knowing than to be impacted by this resistance brand of dull and raunchy soldier of fortune endeavor.
