Tinubu's Directive to Unfreeze Osun Accounts Praised

Dr. Kayode Ajulo, the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice in Ondo State, commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his directive to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to withdraw the court order that had frozen the bank accounts of the Osun State government.

In a statement released on Thursday, Ajulo characterized the president's intervention as a bold affirmation of constitutional democracy and electoral fairness, particularly significant in the lead-up to an electoral contest. He emphasized that this action reflects a commitment to the rule of law and strengthens public confidence in Nigeria's democratic institutions.

Ajulo noted that the credibility of a democratic government relies on public trust and the impartial application of the law, rather than political expediency. He described the directive as a reminder of the importance of the rule of law and constitutional governance, asserting that these principles must be protected in the national interest to enhance public trust in Nigeria's electoral process.
