A member representing Pankshin/Kanam/Kanke Federal Constituency of Plateau State, Yusuf Adamu Gagdi, has hailed the Appeal Court verdict declaring APC’s Nentawe Yilwada Goshe as the governor of Plateau.
Gagdi, while congratulating Nentawe on his victory in a statement at the weekend, described the verdict as a new dawn for the people of Plateau State.
The lawmaker, who is also the chairman, House Committee on Navy, said he strongly believes “the prosperity and serenity of Plateau State shall leap in bounds under the guidance of Dr Nentawe Yilwada Goshwe as the Executive Governor of the State.”
He said, “It is the dawn of a new era in Plateau State with the victory of our Governor-Elect, Dr Nentawe Yilwada Goshwe at the Court of Appeal today, where his victory was affirmed as the legally recognized winner of the March 18, 2023 gubernatorial elections in Plateau State, following the nullification of PDP’s phyric victory.
“We have always indulged our teaming supporters to exercise restraint in their conducts, despite unwarranted provocation by our political opponents who unleashed all weapons of propaganda and emotional blackmail in their arsenals to sway the pendulum of justice and curry public sympathy in their desperation to hold unto power.
“Our belief in the judiciary as the bastion of justice and the last hope of the common man has always been unwavering, and we hold same in the highest esteem as we look forward to approaching the final phase of the legal tussle.
“While I call on all APC supporters to be magnanimous in victory and celebrate this milestone with all sense of modesty, it is my fervent prayer that our joys shall never be cut short by the evil machinations of our adversaries.”
