Truth has finally prevailed, says Oyetola on Appeal Court judgment

Osun State Governor Gboyega Oyetola has described the Appeal
Court judgement affirming his election on Thursday as the triumph
of truth over falsehood.

In a statement shortly after the judgement by his Chief Press
Secretary, Adeniyi Adesina, Oyetola said the ruling validated the
mandate Osun voters gave him on September 22 and 27, 2018.

The governor said: “We give praise to Almighty God for today’s
victory at the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja.

“The victory has validated the mandate you freely gave to us on
September 22 and 27, 2018.

“You spoke with conviction; your voice and choice are clear to
the world, and the judiciary, the last hope of the people and
arbiter of the truth, has proved to the world that it is always on
the side of justice.”

He went on: “After months of uncertainty and wait in judicial
wilderness, truth has finally prevailed over falsehood and the
voice of the majority has ultimately gained dominance over the
phoney manipulation of an unscrupulous minority.

“This victory has proved to all and sundry that there is a limit
to the extent falsehood and propaganda can thrive over truth and
the will of the people.

“I would like to thank you all, the good people of The State of
Osun, for your robust support and steadfastness throughout the
needless periods of political travail and tribulation.

“I am persuaded by your indisputable mandate and the sound
judgment of the Court of Appeal, that the road to ultimate victory
is smooth and unshakable.

“My Administration took off on a note of equitable and quality
service delivery to you the people. That resolve is on course.

I urge you all to be peaceful and to go about your legitimate
businesses as we revel in this well-deserved victory.”
