The Kogi State Commissioner for Information and Communications, Hon. Kingsley Femi Fanwo has hailed the “sound” judgement of the Appeal Court, affirming the victory of Alh. Usman Ododo as the democratically elected Governor of Kogi State, saying the judgement represents “echoes of the indisputable victory” of the Governor at the poll.
Speaking to journalists shortly after the judgement, Thursday, the Kogi State Government Spokesman said the Governor will remain unwavering in his faith in the judiciary.
His words: “Today’s judgement represents echoes of our victory on November 11, 2023. We campaigned round the state and worked hard to reassure the people that our party is the most reliable to take the state forward.
“November 11 will continue to be remembered in Kogi State as the day that Kogites across the Senatorial Districts united to speak with one voice, birthing a resounding victory for the incumbent Governor.
“Today’s verdict has offered another great opportunity for those who lost at the poll and in the courts to join the Governor in moving the state forward”.
Fanwo said the court case did not in any way slow governance down, as the Governor has continued to “roll up his sleeves and deliver democracy dividends to the great people of the State.
“The jubilation that greeted the verdict affirming the victory of the Chief Servant of Kogi State is a demonstration of the triumph of the people’s will”.
Fanwo urged the people of the state to continue to support the Governor in order to make the State the Confluence of Excellence.
