HON OGUNSUA GBOYEGA DIXON(OGD) FELICITATES AIYEDATIWA, ADELAMI OVER SUPREME COURT VICTORY
An esteemed chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from Ifedore Local Government Area of Ondo State, Hon. Ogunsua Gboyega Dixon (OGD) has felicitated Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa and his Deputy, Dr. Olayide Adelami on the Supreme Court validation of their victory at the governorship election.
The suit, instituted by the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), His Excellency, Hon. Agboola Alfred Ajayi, sought to nullify the election on the grounds of alleged discrepancies in the name change of the Deputy Governor, Dr. Olayide Adelami.
The Supreme Court, in its final and binding judgment delivered on March 11, 2025, held that the appellants lacked the requisite legal standing to sustain their claims, rendering the case unsustainable.
Consequently, the apex court dismissed the appeal and imposed a cost of ₦2 million on His Excellency, Hon. Agboola Alfred Ajayi, to be paid to each of the four respondents
In his congratulatiory message, the House of Representatives hopeful in a statement described the development as an affirmation of the mandate given to the duo last November.
In his words, “this landmark decision reaffirms the overwhelming mandate freely given to them by the people of Ondo State in the November 16, 2024, gubernatorial election”.
OGD further applauded the resilience and steadfastness of the progressive government in its unwavering commitment to good governance and developmental strides across the Sunshine State.
OGD described the judgment as a victory for democracy, the rule of law, and the collective will of the people of Ondo State.
“I extend my profound congratulations to His Excellency, Hon. Lucky Orimisan Ayedatiwa, and His Excellency, Dr. Olayide Adelami, MNI, on this resounding judicial triumph. This victory is not only for them but also for the good people of Ondo State, who have once again been assured that their voices, expressed through the ballot, remain supreme”.
“It is a validation of the people’s trust in the ”OUR EASE” development agenda, which continues to drive transformational governance in our dear state”.
“I am confident that this administration will consolidate its strides in infrastructural advancement, economic prosperity, and social welfare for all.”
Hon. Ogunsua further commended the judiciary for upholding justice without bias, reinforcing the supremacy of due process, and ensuring that electoral legitimacy remains sacrosanct.
He called on all political actors to put partisanship aside and join hands with the APC-led administration in moving Ondo State forward.
“With this judicial seal of legitimacy, His Excellency, Hon. Lucky Orimisan Ayedatiwa, and His Excellency, Dr. Olayide Adelami, mni, now stand on an unshakable foundation to continue delivering people-centric governance and driving Ondo State to greater heights”, Hon. Ogunsua added.
