For the second time, President Ahmed Bola Tinubu may be called upon again to clear the air on the rumour making the rounds in Plateau State capital Jos that, he may have guaranteed/promised victory to the Appellants in the Plateau State Governorship case already filed at the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
The rumour also holds that the Supreme Court leadership may have also given the nod in the same line, owing to the alleged promise of the President.
REALITY can authoritatively state that the rumour broke out this morning in Jos city, after an alleged meeting by top Plateau State Government functionaries and some recently sacked Plateau State House of Assembly Members by the Court of Appeal yesterday, the 17th of December, 2023.
You would recall that the rumour of an alleged congratulatory message addressed to the Governor of Plateau State was recently denied by one, Aliyu Audu, a Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs.
The release signed by Aliyu tagged: No Congratulatory Message to Plateau Governor, in part reads, “Our attention has been drawn to a fake message to the Governor of Plateau State for an alleged performance in seven months by President Tinubu.
“President Tinubu has at no time congratulated any Governor for performance.
“If the President plans to initiate a seven-month performance assessment, it will come vide an official statement.
“The public is hereby advised to disregard this claim as fake and only exist in the imagination of its mischievous originators”.
It is a fact that the Supreme Court has already scheduled tomorrow, 19th December, 2023, for the “Report of Service” on Appeal No: SC/CV/1190/2023 being the Plateau State Governorship case, between Mutfwang Caleb Manasseh (Esq) (Appellant) and Dr. Nentawe Yilwatda Goshwe & others (Respondents).
The Report of Service is coming, owing to the Appellants’ Ex-parte Application filed on 11/12/2023 that was granted on 13/12/2023.
MORE TO COME…
