Minister of State, Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, has reacted to the Supreme Court ruling affirming the victory of President Muhammadu Buhari against the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP, Atiku Abubakar in the February 23, 2019 presidential election..
The Supreme Court on Wednesday had dismissed the appeal filed by the Peoples Democratic Party and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, challenging the victory of President Buhari.
The Chief Justice, Tanko Muhammad, who led six other members of the apex court’s panel, disclosed that he and members of the panel had read all the documents and exhibits filed in the case for two weeks and found the appeal to be lacking in merit.
Reacting on his official twitter handle on Wednesday, Keyamo, while congratulating Buhari for his victory, said the substance of Atiku’s Petition against Buhari was the most useless he had ever seen.
He tweeted "Congratulations Nigeria! All the lies and deceit have come to a crushing halt. About 7 months ago, I said the substance of the Petition was the most useless I have ever seen. Now, we have been vindicated. Henceforth, the opposition need to raise its game and be more constructive.
