The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) describes
Supreme Court’s affirmation of the election of River
State Governor Nyesom Wike as the final triumph of
justice and the will of the people of over anti-
democratic forces seeking to forceful take over the
state.
The party says the judgment has further
strengthened the confidence of the people on the
integrity of the Supreme Court and its readiness to
correct any miscarriage of justice at lower stages of
our justice system, particularly electoral cases.
The PDP notes that such fearless verdict is needed
at all levels of the justice system to achieve the
much-needed stability and end the agitations by
Nigerians particularly over the brazen stealing of the
Presidential mandate, which they freely gave to
PDP’s candidate, Atiku Abubakar, at the Presidential
elections.
The party congratulated Governor Wike and the
people of Rivers state for this landmark ruling,
which consolidates the platform for the governor to
continue in his commitment towards greater
productivity without further distractions from those
who do not wish the state well.
The PDP says it is optimistic that all its stolen
mandates will be retrieved so as to save the nation
and give Nigerians the purposeful leadership they
yearn for at this trying time.
