PDP rejects Presidential election petition court judgment

PDP rejects Presidential election petition court judgment

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its Candidate, Atiku Abubakar have rejected the judgement of the Presidential Election Petition Court upholding the election of President Bola Tinubu.

In a statement released by its spokesperson, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, the party said it unequivocally rejects the judgement in its entirety. 

‘’The Judgement is against reason, against the facts and evidence presented in Court; against the relevant Electoral Laws, Guidelines and Regulations as well as the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended). Indeed, the Judgment is generous in technicalities and very short in delivering substantial justice in the matter. The PDP, as a law-abiding political Party, will with our lawyers, have a comprehensive review of the Judgment and decide on the next line of action within the ambit of the law.

The PDP calls on Nigerians to remain at alert, calm and united as our Party continues to lead the charge to defend Democracy and ensure that the Will of the people as expressed in the February 25, 2023 Presidential election is respected and restored.'' the statement read
