Chief Idowu Asonja, a leader in Niger Delta has said that the Supreme Court judgement validating the election of President Bola Tinubu has shown that the judiciary is the pillar on which democracy will continue to rest on.
Asonja described the verdict as the opportunity for the President to turn the furtune around for the country.
He stated that Nigeria will surely work under the watch of President Tinubu.
Speaking via a statement issued on Saturday, the Niger Delta leader congratulated the President for scaling what he described as the last hurdle to the authentication of his electoral victory.
He said, “Nigerians know who they elected as their president and now that their voice at the polls has been validated by the Supreme Court, it time to face issues bordering on the well-being of the people and I am confident that President Tinubu will restore the hope of Nigerians.”
He stated further, Asonja commended the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) flag bearer, Atiku Abubakar and his counterpart in the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi for choosing the law court instead of instigating violence.
“Now that all the processes of the election has been concluded, it is time to join hands with the President and work for Nigeria and its people,” he added.
He subsequently charged the youths and the people of the Niger Delta region to embrace peace and development.
