I thank Tinubu for not interfering in Supreme Court judgment: Governor Yusuf
Governor Abba Yusuf has commended Supreme Court justices for standing on the part of truth and law to entrench justice in the country.
Mr Yusuf spoke on Saturday while addressing party supporters in Kano after about an eight-hour peaceful rally.
He noted that even though attempts were made to steal his mandate, God and the justices of the Supreme Court stood firm in restoring his mandate.
The Kano governor stated, “The Supreme Court gave their judgment and we came out victorious, and that will continue to be our story by the grace of God.
“We have always believed in the judiciary as an institution, we will continue to believe in the judiciary.”
Mr Yusuf added, “We want to thank God for what the Supreme Court did. We remain grateful to President Tinubu. We are also grateful to the judiciary.
“I want to thank President Tinubu for showing himself as a true democrat, and not allowing the political space to become intoxicated.
“He has also shown that as a beneficiary of the people’s votes, he would allow and support the judiciary to perform its role without undue interference optimally.”
