PDP hangs on EU report, tells Tribunal to deliver justice based on available facts

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has urged the Tribunal handling its 2019 presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar’s petition to deliver justice based on available facts.

The call was made by the Board of Trustees (BoT) of the party on Friday during a meeting in Abuja.

According to the chairman of the PDP BoT, Senator Walid Jibrin, the European Union (EU) report on the February 23, 2019 presidential election pointed out “massive irregularities” which should serve as another evidence and eye opener to the judges.

“The EU has already opened the door. I hope the judiciary will listen to what they are saying. They talked sensibly and we agree with them on what they said and we hope we are going to win at the tribunal as well as in other states.”

“What we will ask our members is to be patient and not cause any violence at all. We are ready to abide by the laws of the land. We are not in any mood to cause confusion. Let us face the insecurity in this nation and our party is intact.”

“Our organs are intact; the governors are intact, the National Assembly members are intact. We will not rest in our efforts to move the party forward.”

“We are aimed at restoring our mandate which we are eager and Nigerians are eager to have,” he said.
