Accept tribunal's verdict - Gov Abiodun tells Atiku



The Ogun State Governor, Prince Abiodun has advised the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, to accept Wednesday's tribunal judgement as the voice of the people; adding that power belongs to God.

In the statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Kunle Somorin, Abiodun reportedly expressed joy at the outcome of the verdict confirming the mandate of President Mohammadu Buhari.

"It is victory for Nigerians and democracy.  It shows that while minority would always have their say, the majority would always have their way", he said after the tribunal dismissed the case brought by the former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar. 

"I am very proud of the Judiciary. They have again, for the umpteenth time demonstrated exemplary candour, courage and integrity for which modern democracies thrive," the statement issued by Gov Abiodun's Chief Press Secretary,  Kunle Somorin said.

While urging Alh. Atiku Abubakar to take the verdict as the voice of the people, Gov Abiodun reiterated conviction in the fact that power belongs to God who bestows it on whom He wishes.

He called on all democrats to support the Government of President Buhari, who he said has the divine mandate of God and endorsement of the people till 2023 to keep leading the country.
