Festus Keyamo, has
accused the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar of attempting to
blackmail the Supreme Court, following his comment on the judgement which
upheld the victory of governor Gboyega
Oyetola in the 2018 Osun Governorship election.
Atiku
Abubakar in his reaction to the Supreme Court ruling, had
said; “I urge the nation’s judiciary to take a pulse of the nation and reflect
it. In their hands, God has placed a great responsibility. The duty to ensure
that justice is done, irrespective of the pressure to do otherwise, by the
powers that be.”
However Festus Keyamo
who fired back at the former Vice President over the comment, reminded him of
the court judgement which nullified the election of all APC politicians in
Zamfara State. He tweeted as saying; “Your exellency, with great respect, this comment is beneath you. The Supreme Court
administers justice based on law and not on the ‘pulse of the nation’. This is
a veiled attempt to blackmail the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court will always
do justice ‘even if the heavens fall’. Remember Zamfara?”
What
is your reaction about this very comment from Keyamo to Abubakar?
