The Supreme Court has faulted the claim on social media that President Bola Tinubu had a phone conversation with the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN) about pending proceedings before the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC).
The apex court’s spokesman, Dr. Festus Akande said this in a statement on Wednesday.
The statement reads: “Given the rumor currently circulating in the social media space that the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Hon. Justice Olukayode Ariwoola had a telephone conversation with His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Director General of the Department of State Service (DSS) to pressurize the Presidential Election Petition Court on the likely judgment to give, it is imperative to state clearly that there is no iota of truth in the narrative, as there was no such telephone conversation between the CJN and anyone.
Nigerians have been following the proceedings at the Presidential Election Petition Court with admirable enthusiasm. So, we all should sustain the tempo and follow it up to the end, instead of relapsing into the realm of speculations and rumor peddling that will not do anyone any good.
“If this current trend of falsehood and mudslinging is sustained, our nation may not make the desired progress. The courts are statutorily established to serve the best interest of the masses, and we are ever poised to do that to the best of our ability
