Spark News Daily recalls that in a landmark judgement, a three-man panel of the Appeal Court on Thursday, May 29, 2025, upheld the judgement of the Edo State Governorship Tribunal that earlier affirmed the victory of Governor Okpebholo in the September 21, 2024, governorship election.
Congratulating the Governor, APC in statement by Felix Morka Esq, on Friday commended the Judiciary for being professional in its judgment.
“Our great Party applauds the judiciary for its display of independence and professionalism in its decision, again, affirming the will of the good people of Edo State.
“We are confident that this victory will serve as a fillip for the Governor, whose transformational leadership is resonating across the state, to double down on delivering the dividends of democracy to Edo people.
“We urge the People Democratic Party’s candidate, Asue Ighodalo, to shealth his sword, and join the Governor in his unyielding efforts to bring meaningful development to the state, for the good of all”, APC said.
