The Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Gboyega Oyetola has said that the affirmation of President Bola Tinubu as the winner of the 2023 presidential polls would deepen the country’s electoral laws and jurisprudence.

Reacting to the development via a congratulatory message made available to newsmen in Osogbo, Oyetola described the judgment as a “sound one”.

He congratulated the President and his Vice, Sen. Kashim Shettima, over their victory at the Supreme Court.

Oyetola also congratulated the national Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the National Working Committee (NWC), and members and supporters of the party on the victory.

The minister said that the judgment had finally settled the legal battle over the 2023 presidential election.

According to him, “The Supreme Court judgment is a “sound one” that will further deepen the country’s electoral laws and judicial jurisprudence.

“On behalf of the APC family in Osun, I congratulate our President, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Vice President, Senator Kashim Shettima on their victory at the Supreme Court.

“Today’s judgment has put to an end the needless bickering, distractions, and litigation that greeted the 2023 presidential election.

“It is my hope that the opposition will team up with our president to move Nigeria forward in the overall interest of the country.”
