“I remain the Governor until I appeal, and the law permits us to appeal again. And no matter what happens at that moment, I still remain the Governor until we go to the Supreme Court,” stated Governor Sule.
Sule urged the people of Nasarawa State to remain calm and avoid any actions that could disrupt peace and order in the state.
