Former Governor of Edo State and frontline Edo 2024 All Progressives Congress (APC) Gubernatorial Aspirant, Senator Oserheimen Osunbor has congratulated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and Vice President Kassim Shettima, on the landmark validation of their February 25, 2023 victories at the Presidential Election Petition Court.
The Professor of Law Oserheimen Osunbor in a Statement released from his media desk described the judgment as thorough, exhaustive, and far-reaching especially as it relates to the interpretation of the ambiguous Federal Capital Territory/(FCT) 25% prerequisite for electing a President saying that the judgment has eventually put to rest the contentious constitutional issue.
The Professor of Law commended the Five-Member panel of Justices of the Appeal Court for painstakingly addressing all the prayers of the Petitioners in what can be adjudged as one of the longest but most unassailable judgments in the history of the Judiciary and stressed that by this judgment, they have succeeded in fine-tuning our electoral laws, jurisprudence and deepened our democracy.
He advised the President and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces to be magnanimous in victory and view this as a case of No Victor, No Vanquished as the task of building the Nation and taking it to her glorious heritage is a collective one.
He also urged the Petitioners to understand that the burden of proof was on them and that the Court of Law makes judgments by virtue of incontrovertible evidence placed before it. He appealed that they all join hands with the President in the task of moving the Nation forward in the Renewed Hope mandate of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Senator Oserheimen Osunbor further congratulated the All Progressives Congress, APC for this affirmed victory and prayed for the success of President Tinubu’s/APC led Administration and concluded by wishing him and his Vice good health of mind and body, renewed insights that will birth much-needed growth for us as a Nation.
