The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described Saturday’s judgement of the Rivers State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal that overturned the election of Gov. Nyesom Wike of the PDP as a deadly body blow to impunity and hooliganism. In a statement issued in Lagos on Saturday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said the judgement has shown clearly that the era of impunity and hooliganism is over, and that the only way for elections to have legitimacy is for them to be free, fair and credible.”What has come across from this judgement is that there is no shortcut to free, fair and credible elections. This is part of the wind of change that is blowing across the land and touching all arms of government under the Administration of President Muhammadu Buhari. ”Elections are about the expression of the will of the people, and they must always be free to express themselves, irrespective of what some desperate politicians may feel,” it said. APC said politicians, especially those seeking or occupying elective office, must realize that they can only derive their legitimacy from the people, and that unless they respect the wishes of the people, they will not go far.
The party hailed its governorship candidate in Rivers, Mr. Dakuku Peterside, for his doggedness and strong conviction in the pursuit of his petition against the election of Wike that was not only marred by widespread violence and electoral malfeasance, but also acknowledged to be so by local and international observers – and now by the judiciary. It urged all APC members and supporters in the state to remain peaceful, even in the face of provocation by those who are now realizing, to their chagrin, that there is always a limit to everything, including impunity and hooliganism.

DeleteAm no supporter of either APC or PDP,
DeleteI see Wike winning and claiming his victory@d Appeal or Supreme court's.
Dis is script writing by those in power influencing d 3rd arm of govt which wil amounts to nothing by d end of d day.
Wht a shame dat we r experiencing dis and I believe d road to appeal court and supreme court wil surely b d rescue out of dis.
I pray justice wil prevail by d end of d day and enemies of progress in our democracy wil b put to shame.
Long Live Nigeria!

ReplyDeleteLeave wike alone. APC hooligans.
ReplyDelete~D great anonymous!
The APC keeps talking trash!
ReplyDeleteThe elections that brought Buhari as president wasn't free at the least, with children voting in the North and nobody could say a word. Nigerians wanted Buhari to come to power so Book Haram could cease fire, but alas, they have persisted in their killings and nefarious activities.
The APC, when out-rigged, will come crying foul.
They will now try to use their presidential power to take over Rivers State.
All those shouting Amaechi is god, let them show us what he has done.
The same APC governors that cannot pay salaries? The ineptitude of their overall boss rubs off on them all.
Ameachi is the hero of this judgement , all hail our judiciary, pls kogi and Bayelsa should be free and fair the people's wish should be respected no matter how desperate anybody will be

ReplyDeleteLair Muhammed is a theif.....enjoy,they is expiring date,stupid old fool
ReplyDeleteWhich deadly blow when I know the holistic accompaniment of Wike's down fall? Will Wike still call public attention on the stealing of Rivers money? No. He won't. Amechi is now exonerated. God will punish you all.
ReplyDeleteAPC..! Fish them out!!!

I am not surprise,you stupid fools said Buhari can't win,but he won with a wide margin.chased stupid Jonathan away.APC will win the rerun election.
ReplyDeleteOmo oba the tout,you must really think that Buhari won with the under age voters right ,there I'll be bloodshed in our rivers state if Apc wins ,you all should watch,this is pure dictatorship
DeleteWho goes there ehh omo oba ur head dey there abeg tell them, nothing do u, you ar straight on point
DeleteHow come no APC candidate have lost his case in tribunal? It's only PDP candidates, i hope they will not turn this Syria ooh? Curse Biafra is around the corner.
ReplyDelete@anon 5:42 in my state most apc candidates lost at the tribunal. When would we put sentiments aside and call spade a spade. The verdict of the river state tribunal and that of akwa ibom is fair and for Christ sake they are asking for a re-run so what is the big issue here cos we all know what went down in rivers and akwa ibom during the last election.
DeleteWaooo am happy for Rivers let wike go and rest with patience and jona
ReplyDeleteAPC CHANGE. Sorry can't see any change. Nigerians should be patient and watch how things will unfold. APC will end up worse than PDP. The signs are all there for all to see but we are deliberately turning blind eye. Maybe we are yet in denial. God will see us through. I ask the common man on the street "have you felt the change yet? Or how does this put food on your table?"Answer this simple question and you ll see that your suffering have just started
ReplyDeleteI plead with all the good people of rivers state to come out enmasse for the rerun election. They should make sure they vote and wait for the results to be counted before they leave the voting areas. They should not fear any form of intimidation that those who want to rig the election again might want to use. Your vote is your voice. I salute the tribunal for standing up for justice and not allowed politicians to bribe them. Gov. Okowa, just be ready, your turn is around the corner
ReplyDeleteAPC just for the oil producing states, I see war coming!
ReplyDeleteTrue talk,people should behave their self during the election. TIMILEYIN BLESSING
ReplyDeleteWike will still win..
ReplyDeleteAnd I will say that this administration is delving into deep waters...No Apc governor lost a tribunal...and are u saying election in the North and west was all credible? LIE! Where all these politicians are driving this nation to is very dark...I won't be wrong to say that the appointment of the new Inec Chairperson and the very unfortunate removal of Wike is an ochestred means the apc wants to use to dip their filthy legs in the South...and all you westerners who are making Noise..thinks this is Joke...its not... But I Know that the evil of ApC will not soil the south..God won't let it... People are dying in the North and it's Wike that's their ish. Buhari has done Nothing since elected.. and the brainwashed people are not thinking abt that because of these distractions they always come up with to keep our mind off trivial Issues...

ReplyDeleteNigeria again makes mockery of democracy
ReplyDelete1. Where is Suleiman Ambursa, the Chairman of the Rivers State Governorship Elections Petitions Tribunal from?
ReplyDeleteAnswer: He is from Kaduna state.
2. Who is married to?
Answer: He is married to AISHA BUHARI's younger sister.
Now you know why Justice Pindigi was hurriedly removed mid-way through the tribunal's sitting and replaced with Justice Ambursa.
There is now a flagrant interference with the judiciary in this dispensation.
We are back in Egypt! How did we get here?
