Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo of Kogi State has applauded the decision of the Supreme Court that affirmed his victory as the duly elected Governor of Kogi State.

In his reaction to the ruling which was delivered on Friday, August 23, 2024, Ododo praised the judiciary for rising to the occasion and for asserting its position as the last hope of the common man.

The governor praised the court for mustering the courage to deliver a quality judgment in spite of several threats and blackmail by those who were bent on upturning the course of justice and the will of the majority of the people of Kogi State.

Ododo described his victory as an act of God, noting that the November 11, 2023 Governorship election was a contest among people from the same family to hold power on behalf of the people of the state.

“I feel elated about our victory and how the judiciary held on to the point of law and stayed away from emotional blackmail and threats to ensure justice is served.

He promised to continue to serve the people with dedication and the fear of God, assuring that members of his team will redouble efforts to bring forth creativity in delivering dividends of democracy to the people of the state.
