The presidential spokesperson, Ajuri Ngelale, noted this on Channels Television’s Politics Today Programme on Monday, September 4, stating that, the president is not worried of the Wednesday Tribunal outcome.
Ngelale said, “He (Tinubu) is not worried simply because he knows he won the election.
“The President sees no need to threaten judicial officers. He sees no need to raise speculations against the integrity of judicial officers; he believes in the sanctity and integrity of the Nigerian judicial system, he believes the great men and women on the panel will make their decisions based only on the fact before them.
“He will continue to ensure that no matter what the outcome of the judgment is, he does his part and ensure that our institutions continue to be respected, not just by him, but all actors,” Ngelale added.
