He recently has his say via a press statement, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, he was not pleased with the judgment at all because of the obvious electoral wrongdoing in the election, and it is a shame that the wrongdoings were not addressed in the tribunal, appeal court and the apex court.
He added that this is definitely not the outcome his party envisaged or worked so hard for.
His words, “I once again appreciate the privilege of offering myself to serve you as the governor of our dear state in the 2023 general elections.
We have expressed our reservation on the conduct and the outcome of the election by taking advantage of the provisions of the constitution and the electoral law to file a petition at the election tribunal through to the appeal court and, finally, the Supreme Court.
This is not the outcome we envisaged or worked so hard for. But I am very proud of the values we share and the vision we hold for our dear state. And for the very robust, vast, diverse, people-centered, and rural-network campaign that we built and executed together.
I know how disappointed you are with the outcomes of the election because I feel it, too. The frustration, intimidation, and betrayal, but our disappointment must be overcome by our love for our dear state.
Since the election is over, and all avenues to seek redress for observed electoral wrongdoing have been exhausted, we need to cease fire and let the declared winner govern on the basis of their vision for the development of our state and let the electorates be the judge of their performance.
This will not, in any way, deter me from continuing to contribute my quota to the development of our dear state and towards achieving the desired economic emancipation and a breath of fresh air in governance for our people.”
