A former deputy governor of Ondo State, Alhaji Ali Olanusi has said he had forgiven his former boss, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko and the state lawmakers, who he alleged planed his impeachment.
Speaking with newsmen in Akure, the state capital over the appeal court judgment on Friday, Olanusi said his vindication by the appellate court was not by his cleverness, but an act of God.
He said, “There is no cause for revenge, if God did not want all these to happen, it would not have turned out this way.
“The injustice has been exposed to the people of Ondo State and may God reward all accordingly.’’
Recall that Olanusi was ousted by the state House of Assembly in 2015 for alleged gross misconduct but had his impeachment nullified by the Court of Appeal sitting in Akure, the state capital on Friday.
Olanusi had earlier challenged his impeachment at the Federal High Court, Lagos claiming that the lawmakers did not follow due process before taking the action against him.
The court, however dismissed the suit for lack of jurisdiction.
