gressives Congress and the Federal Government on Thursday derided the opposition Peoples Democratic Party and its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, over the judgment of the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal.
He had visited Buhari in company with the APC women leaders led by the National Women Leader, Hajia Salamatu Umar-Eluma. “Now, this has been resolved and it is time to queue behind the winner and move on. Our winner is the best example that losing an election is not tantamount to the end of your political life. He lost three previous elections, and today he is the President.
He noted, “I am happy that I can defend myself very effectively on this issue. The APC leader is my witness. Since the coming into power of this administration, I have handed over the treasury to women. But Atiku’s media aide, Mr Paul Ibe, berated the minister for asking the PDP and its presidential candidate to apologise to Nigerians. Ibe berated Mohammed in a tweet in response to Mohammed’s statement.Also, the PDP in the South-West described the tribunal judgment as a ‘miscarriage of justice’. The National Vice -Chairman for the zone, Eddy Olafeso, in a statement on Thursday, said justice was not done by the tribunal.
The Abia State Chairman of the APC, Donatus Nwankpa, stated this in an interview with The PUNCH in Umuahia. He described the judgment of the tribunal as the most painstaking. Abdulrazaq said, “Given the unprecedented margin of victory that Mr President recorded in our state, Kwara, and the very glaring acceptability of his candidature across the country, I have always known that any legal challenge to his victory would be just an academic exercise because the people have spoken clearly.”The Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule, described the judgment as a victory against falsehood.
“President Buhari, congratulations and carry Nigerians along. Unify the country, the country is too divided. I am saying what is right. What I will do, I will do, what I will not do, I will not do.”
