Ekiti State Governor, Engr. Segun Oni has dedicated his victory at the Election Petitions Tribunal to God and the good people of Ekiti State, saying; “We thank God, the judiciary has once again lived up to expectations.”

Governor Oni, who moved to the Government House Chapel with his Deputy, Dr. Sikiru Tae Lawal, State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Rot. Bola Olu Ojo and other top government functionaries for a thanksgiving service immediately after the judgment said he bears no grudge against anyone.

He thanked the people of the State for their support and steadfastness in the face of provocation from political empire seeking warlords, saying; “Ekiti is not a State to be captured by any external forces, which are only bent on adding Ekiti to the comity of their economic and political colony.

“Today, God again demonstrated His absolute power. He put to shame all the manipulations of evil forces that are bent on enslaving Ekiti state. God, in His infinite mercies proved that truth will always prevail over falsehood no matter how long it takes.

“I also salute the courage of the judiciary for putting an end to the evil machinations of those who believed that Ekiti State and the entire Nigeria can be purchased at any cost.

“The judgment has further demonstrated that our judiciary would always rise above sentiment and cheap propaganda with which public opinions are being manipulated by those who have substantial interest in the media. “
