Supreme Court Victory; Kogi Deputy Speaker Congratulates Governor Bello

The Kogi State Deputy Speaker and member representing Ankpa 1 constituency, Rt. Hon. Ahmed Mohammed has congratulated Governor Yahaya Bello and his Deputy, Chief Edward David Onoja over the validation of his election victory by the Supreme Court of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

In a statement personally signed by him on Monday, the state legislator said the news of the supreme court verdict did not come as a surprise because of the massive support the Governor received during the November 2019 Gubernatorial Elections from Kogites of diverse backgrounds. He noted that the affirmation of the mandate clears the path for GYB/CEDO to settle down in taking Kogi State to greater heights without any distractions.

According to Rt. Hon. Ahmed; “The victory was expected because Governor Yahaya Bello has always been magnanimous in victory. That is why I am calling on Kogites irrespective of party lines, religious and ethnic background to join hands with our Governor for the benefit of all. I am confident that, the state, with the cooperation and prayers of everyone, will experience massive development.” He said.

He assures the Governor, his Deputy and the new direction team of his utmost support and loyalty, in taking Kogi State to greater heights.

Signed;
Rt. Hon. Ahmed Mohammed
Deputy Speaker, KGHA

In a significant development, the Supreme Court has issued a stay of execution on the orders of the Court of Appeal, which were previously granted on March 1st, 2024.

The legal team representing the Petitioners, led by Chief J.S. Okutepa SAN and including Shaibu Enejoh Aruwa SAN and other lawyers, passionately argued for the stay during today's hearing, expressing concern over the irreversible damage the Court of Appeal's orders would inflict on their clients.
