Following the Appeal Court judgement in Abuja, on Thursday, the Action Alliance governorship candidate in the November 2023 election in Kogi State, Otunba Olayinka Braimoh, has expressed his intention to go ahead to the Supreme Court to seek justice.
According to him, this is the only way to ensure victory for democracy and the people of Kogi State.
Braimoh’s decision comes after the Appeal Court upheld the election tribunal’s decision to dismiss his petition against Ododo on technical grounds.
Reacting to the Judgment, he stated that the evidence provided by his team clearly shows how the election process was manipulated by the ruling party and INEC, and he had hoped that the Appeal Court would have overturned the tribunal’s earlier verdict.
“Our decision to take this case to the Supreme Court demonstrates our unwavering commitment to upholding democracy and fighting against electoral malpractice. We believe that the people of Kogi State deserve a fair and transparent election process, free from manipulation and interference. By pursuing this case at the highest court in the land, we are sending a clear message that we will not back down in our quest for justice and accountability
“Our determination to seek justice at the Supreme Court also highlights our belief in the rule of law and the importance of upholding the integrity of the electoral process. Despite facing setbacks at the lower courts, we remain resolute in our belief that the truth will prevail and that the people of Kogi State will ultimately have their voices heard”, Braimoh stated.
