The Kogi State Government has condemns in the strongest of terms, the attack on Alhaji Muritala Yakubu Ajaka at the Supreme Court, moments after the determination of the electoral litigations involving the Governors of Kogi, Imo and Bayelsa States.

A statement issued on Sunday by the information Commissioner, Kingsley Fanwo described the attack as “unwarranted” that should not have happened.

The statement quoted Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo of Kogi State as having described the conduct of the hoodlums as “barbaric, uncivilized and a grave danger to the institution of justice.

He urged Nigerians from all walks of life to eschew resort to self help.

” As a Government, we implore the law enforcement agencies to fish out the perpetrators and make them face the full wrath of the law to serve as a deterrent to others as well as protect the integrity and safety of our court environments across the country.

We urge all Nigerians to support the path of constitutionalism and unity, which are the core values of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration. We all must support his lofty policies and values for the progress and development of our dear nation”. He said.
