The Ebonyi State Government Southeast Nigeria has commended  the Nigeria judiciary for their reassuring position in defence of truth and democracy.

This was Contained in a statement issued by the Commissioner for Information and State Orientation, Engr Jude Okpor on Abakaliki the State Capital.

Okpor said  “Ebonyi State Government today, Friday November 24, 2023 received the cheering news of the victory of His Excellency, Rt. Hon. Bldr. Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru at the Court of Appeal sitting in Lagos.

There is no gainsaying the fact that the judgement is not only the totality of the reflection of the wishes of Ebonyi People, but also a confirmation of their goodwill through the ballot box in the April, 2023 gubernatorial election.

“Like we maintained after the Tribunal’s judgement in September, The Court of Appeal’s decision today, again, is a victory for all who repose their confidence in the Governor, Mr Francis  Nwifuru and what he can achieve for the State and humanity as Governor”

“When God ordains, no man dares cast down”

Okpor said the victory of the governor has once again reaffirmed the collective choice of Ebonyi people, the overwhelming voice of equity, fairness and justice, which ushered in his resounding victory as governor in the  March 18, 2023 polls.

He said this judgement has further strengthened the earlier pronouncement of the tribunal, and given added impetus to the Nigeria judiciary as the bastion of democracy and the last hope of the common man.

Opening further doors

This judgement has further diminished the already drowning voices of opposition in the state thereby opening further doors for all Ebonyians to join the platform of equity and justice, which has so far paid off in addressing the people’s charter of needs, bringing development to all sectors of governance in Ebonyi State.

As Ebonyi people celebrate this triumph, I enjoin them to sustain their prayers for Governor, Francis Nwifuru, knowing that their best wishes for him  are already gradually coming to practical fruition”

He congratulate those whose lives have been positively touched within the last few months as he appreciated God Almighty.
