The candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) in last October\u2019s governorship election in Ondo State, Mr. Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN), yesterday assured sacked workers that they will get their jobs back after the final determination of the election dispute.<\/p>\n

Some workers were sacked recently at the Adekunle Ajasin University (AAU), Akungba-Akoko; Rufus Giwa Polytechnic, Owo and in some local government councils.<\/p>\n

Akeredolu, who spoke during a current affairs programme on a private radio station (Adaba FM), was optimistic that the Appeal Court will reverse the ruling of the Justice Andova Kaka\u2019n-led tribunal, which upheld the re-election of Governor Olusegun Mimiko.<\/p>\n

The former President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) described the verdict as \u201ca miscarriage of justice\u201d, adding that the Appellate Court will do justice to it.<\/p>\n

Akeredolu wondered why the lower tribunal shunned the ACN\u2019s expert\u2019s analysis and admitted that the injection of imaginary names into the voter\u2019s register was a pre-election matter.<\/p>\n

He said if it was in England or America, the judiciary would have compared the 2011 and 2012 voter\u2019s registers to verify whether fake names were injected or not.<\/p>\n

Akeredolu said: \u201cMy confidence in the judiciary is intact. I know the truth will prevail at the end of the day.\u201d<\/p>\n

He urged the people to keep hope alive, adding that better days will come soon.<\/p>\n
