Congratulatory Message to His Excellency, Senator Monday Okpebholo, on His Appeal Court Victory

Dear Governor Okpebholo,

I write to extend my warmest congratulations to you and your esteemed Deputy Governor on the affirmation of your electoral victory by the Court of Appeal. This landmark ruling, which upholds the earlier tribunal judgment, is a reaffirmation of the overwhelming mandate freely given to you by the good people of Edo State.

The appellate court's verdict not only strengthens the legitimacy of your administration but also reinforces the vital role of the judiciary in safeguarding democracy, promoting justice, and preserving the will of the people.

This well-deserved victory is a reflection of the confidence the people of Edo State expressed at the polls on September 21, 2024. It stands as a beacon of hope and a symbol of the democratic resilience that defines our state. The visible strides your administration has already made in governance confirm the age-old truth that when the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice.

Your leadership continues to exemplify integrity, commitment, and a clear vision for sustainable development. Your ongoing efforts to foster peace, unity, and progress across the state are commendable and have set Edo on a solid path toward prosperity. This judicial triumph marks a significant step toward putting post-election disputes to rest and focusing squarely on delivering good governance.

On behalf of the resilient and proud people of Orhionmwon/Uhunmwode Federal Constituency, I celebrate this momentous occasion with you. May God grant you continued wisdom and strength as you advance the aspirations of Edo people through your visionary SHINE Agenda.

Long live the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Long live Edo State.

Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Signed,

Hon. Chief (Dr.) Billy Adesuwa Famous Osawaru
