The Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG) has expressed optimism that the judgments delivered by the Supreme Court of Nigeria regarding the governorship election disputes in various states across the country will pave the way for improved public faith in the nation’s justice system. “The Supreme Court Justices, through their considered decisions, have proven their dedication to the sustainment of justice and fairness. By upholding the popular will of the people, they have reasserted the judiciary’s position as the temple of justice. “This demonstrates a commitment to the rule of law and the independence of the judiciary, which are essential for a functioning democracy. “Tinubu’s neutrality throughout the Supreme Court process indicates his commitment to leaving a legacy of entrenched judicial independence for coming administrations to build upon.
