According to him, the judgment is not only a victory for the ADC but also for democracy, justice, and every Nigerian who believes in a vibrant political system where ideas compete freely and the will of the people prevails.
He also called on party members, supporters, and well-meaning Nigerians to remain united and committed to building a stronger, more inclusive, and prosperous nation through peaceful democratic engagement.
