on Friday, the Supreme Court restored Yusuf’s victory in the March 18, 2023 governorship election, after both the election tribunal and the Court of Appeal had earlier nullified his victory.

In the Sunday statement, Yusuf expressed his satisfaction with Tinubu and Shettima’s steadfastness despite alleged pressure to interfere with the court judgement.

The spokesman said, “Referring to the alleged efforts by former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje to use the Presidency to sway the Supreme Court’s decision in favour of Gawuna, Yusuf said Tinubu and Shettima’s unwavering stance was a testament to Nigeria being in capable hands.”

Yusuf also extended an olive branch to his rival, Nasiru Gawuna, who lost in the Supreme Court.
