Nigerians Should Have Pity On Tribunal Judges, Not Anger – Dele Momodu

The Director of Strategic Communications for the Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Council, Dele Momodu, has urged Nigerians not to be angry with the judges of the Presidential election petition tribunal but rather should have pity on them.

He said this as he expressed dismay over the tribunal’s decision, which affirmed President Bola Tinubu as the winner of the February 25 presidential election.

The tribunal, which was led by the chairman of the panel, Justice Haruna Tsammani, ruled on Wednesday that petitions of the presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party and the Labour Party, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, and their parties, lacked merit.

Reacting to the judgement, Momodu, in a post shared via his handle, @DeleMomodu, on X (formerly Twitter) late Wednesday night, expressed  shock at the manner in which the constitution “was deliberately turned upside down.”

He wrote, “I watched in utter amazement and wonderment how our Constitution was brazenly and deliberately turned upside down by those who lack a sense of history and care less about the verdict of history.

“What all men and women of good conscience should have for them is pity and not anger. Nigeria shall be free.”
