Supreme Court verdict: Support Adeleke to develop Osun, Buhari tells citizens, residents

Published by

President Muhammadu Buhari has reacted to the Supreme Court victory of Governor Ademola Adeleke, noting he recognizes it and calling on citizens and residents of the State to support the governor to succeed.

According to a statement issued after the judgement on Tuesday by Femi Adesina, Special Adviser to the President (Media & Publicity), beyond recognizing the court’s victory, Buhari also acknowledged the important role of the judiciary in deepening the rule of law and democracy.

It said with the final decision by the Court, the President reminded the political class and their supporters that the main task at hand is to make the people feel the impact of good governance, where a prosperous, peaceful and stable Osun is guaranteed.

He, therefore, urged all citizens and residents of the State, particularly her notable sons and daughters, to give the government of Senator Adeleke all the support it needs to ensure that programmes, policies, plans and aspirations fashioned to make individuals and businesses flourish succeed.

According to him, “Elections should be seen as the path to an end, which is the progress of the people in a peaceful environment, rather than unending bickering. This is the time for inclusion and harmony in the State at the end of litigation.”

President Buhari thanked the people of Osun for contributing immensely to the development of the nation, particularly through the state’s rich cultural heritage, the several historic sites and tourist attractions, including the Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The statement said that President Buhari trusts that the government will continue to develop the boundless resources in the State of the Living Spring, complementing the roles of the government at the Centre of national development and prosperity.
