The group fingered a prominent All Progressives Congress (APC) member and three governors on the platform of the ruling party as those behind the plot. They accused the politicians of using President Muhammadu Buhari's name to intimidate the justices to jettison the supremacy of the constitution and find any way to give a favourable judgement to Osun state governor, Gboyega Oyetola. In a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday, June 26 and signed by its coordinator, allam Shuaibu Adamu, the union alleged that the governors who had arrived a day earlier for meetings, spent the night meeting select justices who have resisted financial inducements and insisted on following the rule of law and supremacy of the constitution in line with the oath they swore to when they became justices of the Supreme Court.

The whole world knows what happened in Osun was a ra*e of democracy and an affront to the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria. The UK, US and EU all condemned the election especially the established voter harassment and disenfranchisement that characterized it. “We affirm to the justices that ruling on facts and supremacy of the constitution is the right and conscionable path of honour and posterity will judge them as bold and courageous standing for equity and justice. “We are interested in this matter because it is a stain on the nation's democratic credential. We need to clean it up by allowing the truth and the constitution to prevail.Mr President also agreed to this line of thought and that was why he has directed the Supreme Court to follow the law and their convictions. “We plan to present a protest letter to the presidency and the Chief Justice of Nigeria on this matter.” Meanwhile, a recent media report revealed that several Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) officials during the 2019 presidential election claimed that they transmitted results electronically to a ‘central server’ through smart card readers.
