Supreme Court judgments douse tension – APC

The All Progressives Congress, Deputy National Organising Secretary, Nze Chidi, has lauded the Supreme Court judgment on election petitions challenging the outcome of the 2023 governorship elections in eight States, adding that it doused tension in the country.

Recall that in Lagos, Ebonyi and Cross River States, the Supreme Court upheld the election of Babjide Sanwo-Olu, Francis Nwifuru and Bassey Otu respectively while it also upheld the election of Abba Yusuf (Kano), Dauda Lawal, Bala Mohammed, Caleb Mutfwang and Alex Otti of Zamfara, Bauchi, Plateau and Abia States respectively.

Reacting to the court judgments, Chidi in an interview with journalists in Abuja, on Sunday in Abuja lauded the judiciary for rising to the occasion.

He said, “Nigerians are now confident that you can take your differences and grievances to an impartial arbiter and there will be justice dispensed in a way that is satisfactory to all parties involved.

“It gives confidence to both the political actors that the only way you can win election really and frankly is to reach out to the electorate; to canvass your views, your ideas and your ideals, share your manifestos with them and then when you win, you win fair and square.

“So in my view, I think it is a moment for Nigerians to be happy. I also believe that it has in a way doused tension in the country. It is not a matter of whether is APC, PDP Labour or NNPP. The reality is that as we all know, the final arbiter has spoken in all elections and is essentially commendable.

On Kano, he said, “The trial court appreciated and they pronounced the fact as they understood it at the trial court. The same thing happened when they went to the Court of Appeal, it was also basically on the extent they appreciated the matter and those in the final court saw it differently and then of course pronounced judgment based on the facts that were before them. So, it does not in any way denigrate one section of the arms of the judiciary against the other.

On the suspended Minister of Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation, Betta Edu, for alleged money laundering, the APC Deputy Organizing Secretary commended President Bola Tinubu.

“I can only tell you that the events of the last few days have also re-engineered a sense of optimism on the part of Nigerians that this government is listening. That this government is a government that harkens to the views of Nigerians

“You have also seen a lot of actions that have been taking place in the last few weeks, it gives hope to Nigerians that if we continue to work like like this, the APC may also become unassailable in the next few years; a year or two from now, leading to the next election,” he added.

Governor Sule seals $2m Lithium deal with Chinese Firm

Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule has presided over the signing of a $2 million supplementary lithium agreement between the state government and Diamond New Energy, following his recent visit to China.   The agreement was signed at the Nasarawa State Governor’s Lodge in Abuja on Friday, August 14, 2026. Sule said the deal would help keep the company’s lithium processing factory operational while protecting jobs created by the investment. > “We are going to keep your factory functional, and we also have an interest as license owners in whatever you are doing in your company. More importantly, the people you have employed will remain employed,” the governor said. According to Channels Television, the governor said the state moved quickly to secure the relevant mining licence to ensure continued access to raw materials and prevent another party from obtaining the licence. The Commissioner for Environment and Natural Resources, Margaret Elayo, expressed appreciation to the investors and said the partnership could encourage further investment in Nasarawa. The signing was witnessed by officials from the state Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources, the Nasarawa State Investment Development Agency (NASIDA), Diamond New Energy and Ganfeng Lithium Industry Limited. Sule also urged the company to maintain peaceful relations with host communities and contribute to their development. He disclosed that payments due to the state under the agreement would be made in foreign currency directly to Nasarawa Mining Company Limited, with the terms subject to periodic review. Agreement builds on 2024 mining deal NASIDA Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer Ibrahim Abdullahi said the state government had signed an exclusive mining cooperation agreement with the company in 2024. He said the partnership had contributed to the completion of what he described as the largest lithium processing refinery in West Africa. The supplementary agreement allows the continued supply of lithium materials from the state government’s mining block to serve as feedstock for the refinery. Abdullahi said the arrangement was expected to create further employment opportunities for young people and women in Nasarawa. He added that the state would receive $2 million immediately upon signing, with additional revenues expected under the agreement. A representative of Diamond New Energy, David Siong, said the company remained committed to expanding its operations in Nasarawa, including local processing of resources, job creation and supporting economic development in host communities. The Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Isaac Danladi, also presented copies of a deed of assignment transferring the mining rights and interests of Nasarawa Mining Company within 3.5 mining cadastral units in Endo, Nasarawa Local Government Area, to Ganfeng Lithium Industry Limited.
