The governorship candidate of the Social Democratic Party in the November 11, 2023 governorship election in Kogi state, Alh Murtala Yakubu Ajaka, on Thursday alleged that some irregularities and manipulations influenced the outcome of the petition he filed along with his party against the election of Usman Ododo of the All Progressives Congress before the Court of Appeal.
He said, “We must remain relentless in our pursuit of justice. We cannot afford to be deterred by setbacks or disheartened by temporary defeats. Our cause is just, and our determination will not waver. We must stand united and continue to support our legal team as they navigate these complex legal waters on our behalf.
He called on all his supporters to remain calm and peaceful in the face of “this disappointment and injustice.” While commending his legal team for working diligently and tirelessly throughout the legal battle, he said their brilliance, dedication, and unwavering commitment to justice have been evident at every step of the way, not minding the disappointing outcome so far.
