Join Hands With Buhari To Rule Nigeria – Fayemi Urges Atiku


Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi on Thursday urged former Vice- President Abubakar Atiku and other opposition figures to team up with President Muhammadu Buhari in the task of building a new Nigeria.


Fayemi made the call in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Yinka Oyebode, in Ado Ekiti on Thursday.

The governor said the call became necessary now that the controversies surrounding the actual winner of the 2019 Presidential Election had been settled by the Supreme Court.

He congratulated President Muhammadu Buhari on the Supreme Court’s verdict which re-affirmed his victory at the poll, describing it as “a victory for democracy”. Fayemi said the Supreme Court’s verdict had put an end to the legal battle over the 2019 presidential election, by re-affirming Buhari as the validly elected President of the country.

The governor described the Supreme Court verdict as a reaffirmation of the mandate freely given to Buhari by the electorate during the Feb.23 Presidential Election.

He commended the judiciary for its boldness and resilience in deepening the country’s democracy through sound judgments, stressing that democracy was gradually taking firm roots in the country with the people’s will triumph over other considerations.

This is good for our democracy. It is a victory for democracy. This victory is not for the All Progressives Congress (APC) alone. It is a victory for all well-meaning Nigerians. The people have spoken in a clear tone and the judiciary has re-affirmed the will of the people.

On behalf of the government and good people of Ekiti state, I congratulate our President, Muhammadu Buhari and Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, the leadership of APC and entire citizens of our dear country on this victory

I believe that the verdict of the apex court has put to an end to all the distractions occasioned by agitations about the 2019 presidential election.

While we congratulate the leadership of the APC, we urge the opposition to join the President in the task of building the country and taking it to the next level of socio-economic development,”

The Governor said.

It’s safe to say Pierre-Emerick Aubemayang isn’t very happy about his FIFA 21 rating. The Gunners’ talisman has been handed an 87 rating for the new edition of the game – the same rating he was in FIFA 19. And the Gabon international has sarcastically responded to his card with a laughing face emoji. Aubameyang had another superb season for the Gunners, hitting 22 Premier League goals for Mikel Arteta’s side – the same he managed last year. However, the 31-year-old played a pivotal role in Arsenal’s FA Cup triumph, netting a brace against Chelsea to seal a first trophy in management for Arteta. Meanwhile, it is understood Aubameyang will ‘imminently’ sign a new three-year contract at the Emirates. It is understood he will become the club’s highest earner on his new deal, surpassing Mesut Ozil’s reported £350,000-a-week wages. The report adds Arteta has been integral in talks to keep the 31-year-old striker in north London. Former Arsenal head of football Raul Sanllehi is believed to ha...
