Tinubu: Lawyers Support Group laud Supreme Court Ruling, Urge Caution in Appointments.
The Lawyers Network for Bola Ahmed Tinubu LAMBAT, has congratulated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu/Shettima as the apex court in the country affirmed their worthwhile victory in the presidential election.
This was contained in a statement released by the group today in Lagos, and signed on its behalf, by the trio of Dotun Ajulo, Esq. the National Convener, Damian-Ukpa Ukpa, Co-Convener, South-East and Ogunbona Akinpelu National Secretary.
The group said “Against all primordial attacks driven by sentiments and emotions allured in political party affiliation, it is commendable that our judiciary stood tall and genuine in conserving democracy by clearly distilling the issues raised in the appeal and justifiably dispensed with the same simplistically for every objective mind.”
The statement further said, the constitution of the cabinet of the President Bola Tinubu administration is commendably one of the very best since 1999, as it genuinely reflects inclusiveness along political party lines, with impressive inclusion of women and young people. It said that the renewed hope is indeed beckoned.
“As a group, we have however observed certain choices of appointment which is not only insensitive but undermine the sacrifices of the supporters and loyalist of this administration.”
“Whilst the door of appointment into public office should not be permanently shut against any Nigerian for his beliefs, affiliation, and choice, it is sacrosanct that we must ensure that we do not empower known promoters of hatred against tribes, culture, religion, and even humanity.”
“As a lawyers group, that was actively involved in the campaign and the entire electioneering process that brought about the victory of this administration at the poll, from the said appointment and any other future appointment, in other democratic climes, society takes thorough cognizance of such personalities to prevent them from getting close to any opportunity that would make them unleash the bestiality in them.”
“Those who come to equity, must come with clean hands.” the statement concluded
