All Progressives Congress (APC) has described the verdict of the Supreme Court that upheld the victory of President Bola Tinubu as an epochal judgement that underscored the independence and vibrancy of the Nigerian judiciary.
APC, in a statement signed by National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, said the judgment will put to rest all lingering misgivings about the 2023 presidential election.
“The APC applauds the judgement of the Supreme Court affirming Bola Tinubu as the validly elected President of Nigeria.
“Dismissing the appeals of Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) as lacking merit, the Supreme Court upheld the judgment of the Presidential Election Petitions Court that found in favour of the President.
“This epochal judgement underscores the independence and vibrancy of the Nigerian judiciary as an indispensable feature of our democracy.
“It is our hope that this judgment will put to rest all lingering misgivings about the 2023 presidential election so that we may all now concentrate on working collaboratively across party lines on behalf of our people.
“We heartily congratulate President Tinubu, the Vice President, Senator Kashim Shettima, and the Nigerian people on this important landmark victory for our democracy,” the statement read.
