Leader of Afenifere Worldwide, Chief Reuben Famuyide Fasoranti on Friday, said President Bola Tinubu’s victory at the Supreme Court on Thursday, is monumental.

The Afenifere leader expressed this in a statement made available to journalists by the its  National Publicity Secretary, Comrade Jare Ajayi.

Chief Fasoranti commended the justices that adjudicated on the cases both at the panel and Supreme Court levels, “for being so painstaking in their assignments”. 

He maintained that  President Tinubu’s victory is monumental,  “because of the clarifications made in respect of certain aspects of our electoral processes.

“One of such was the pronouncements made regarding the position of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). Ditto for the position of the law in regard to the deadline for filing papers relating to elections”.

While lauding the judiciary, the leader of Afenifere Worldwide, hailed Nigerians for the peaceful atmosphere that, on the whole, characterized the whole electoral and judiciary processes.

He however, reminded President Tinubu of some of the issues he had raised with President Tinubu in the recent past especially problems confronting the country, particularly in the area of security, saying, ” it is a matter of concern that insecurity  is still being experienced”.

”  This can be seen in the upsurge in banditry, kidnapping, herdsmen and attacks on farmers, cultism and even terrorism.To put all these under control, the following were suggested as immediate steps to be taken such as the aspects of the law regarding policing in Nigeria be looked into. 

” At the moment, the extant law centralises the Nigerian Police. Doctrine of necessity be invoked to allow states and local government areas to establish police services”.
