It’s waste of time appealing tribunal judgement, Yahaya Bello tells oppositions

Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello has asked the opposition to accept the verdict of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal which affirmed the victory of President Bola Tinubu at the presidential election.

Speaking with State House correspondents on Thursday, Bello said it would be a waste of time for the opposition parties to approach the Supreme Court to appeal the tribunal’s judgement.

“I will rather appeal to them that they should drop any appeal going to the higher court and then save the resources, save the trouble, advise their supporters, admonish them that they should accept yesterday’s judgement. No flaw. I thank God for all that happened yesterday,” he said.

Speaking further, Bello also urged all aggrieved political parties and their candidates to support President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressive Congress Party APC for a better Nigeria.

He said President Tinubu is working at his best to ensure that he fixes the hardship facing many Nigerians.

“Nigerians within the country and in the diaspora are happy and I think it’s time to settle down and face governance. And I advise all those that feel aggrieved, we have only one country, Nigeria. They should all come together and support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and ensure that we fix this country.

“Whatever hardship we are facing today is the effects of the past. Definitely we have Mr. fix it who is trying his best travelling around the world to ensure that Nigeria is fixed. So we are happy the matter is settled. As far as I’m concerned, I dont think there is any ground for appeal.”
