The spokesperson for President Bola Tinubu, Ajuri Ngelale, asserted in an interview on Channels Television on Monday that President Tinubu is unconcerned about the potential outcome of the presidential election tribunal.
Ngelale emphasized that Tinubu does not feel the need to exert pressure on judicial officials in relation to the election petition.
The tribunal is scheduled to announce its judgment on September 6, regarding the challenges to Tinubu’s victory in the February 25 election.
The contest was disputed by the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Ngelale conveyed Tinubu’s confidence that the panel will make their decision based on the presented evidence.
“Unlike some political gladiators in the country, the President sees no need to threaten judicial officers,” he said.
“He sees no need to raise speculations against the integrity of judicial officers. He believes in the sanctity and integrity of the Nigerian judicial system.
“As a result of his confidence and faith in the judiciary, he believes that the mandate which Nigerians freely gave to him during the elections would stand. That is the position of the President.
“He will continue to ensure that no matter what the outcome of the judgment is, he does his part and ensures that our institutions continue to be respected, not just by him, but by all actors.
“He is not worried because he knows he won the election. We believe that we have presented the best case and the evidence is on our side,” he said.
