Minister of State for Labour and Spokesperson for the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council for the 2023 elections, Festus Keyamo, has denied suing the APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, over alleged certificate forgery.

Premium Politics recalls that the Spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar Campaign Organisation, Daniel Bwala, claimed that Keyamo once sued Tinubu for alleged certificate forgery.

Bwala, in an interview on Channels TV on Tuesday, noted that Keyamo had sued the Lagos Assembly in 2002 over Tinubu’s candidacy as the then governor of Lagos State.

Reacting to this via a statement, Keyamo stated, “I never sued Tinubu. No. I sued the House of Assembly seeking an interpretation of the law”.

Keyamo in his statement said:

“Once the Supreme Court pronounces on an issue, it becomes binding on even the lawyer who loses and he is bound to obey and defend the judgment of the court. So assuming (which is not conceded) that I made any kind of accusation in the matter, once the Supreme Court ruled, that was the end of the matter and from that moment, it behoves me to stop pushing a matter already laid to rest by the highest court of the land and defend the decision.

“Nigerians would be hearing from the horse’s mouth as to what actually transpired during the battle that raged then and how the matter was eventually laid to rest,” he said, adding that he is “the greatest defender of Asiwaju on the issue today”

According to Channels, Keyamo noted that “these battles we waged were not borne out of bitterness and hate” but to “unravel the truth and the real constitutional powers of the House”.

“So, once the issue was laid to rest, we move on. Anyone who thinks I would still harbour any kind of resentment more than 20 years later should examine his/her head,” he said.
