Wike, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), spoke exclusively during Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Thursday, a day after the marathon ruling of the court.
“Nigerians have spoken, (and) the court has affirmed it,” Wike said.
The former governor of Rivers state hailed the five-man panel of the tribunal led by Justice Haruna Tsammani for painstakingly delivering its judgment.
Wike urged the petitioners - PDP’s flag bearer, Atiku Abubakar; and his Labour Party (LP) counterpart, Peter Obi, to join hands with the Tinubu's administration, for the greater good of all.
