PDP Press Statement On Supreme Court Judgement by chily11: 10:16pm On Jan 14, 2020 |
Imo Guber Election: The @OfficialPDPNig is surprised at the judgment of the Supreme Court on the Imo state governorship election describing it as yet another very sad commentary on our nation’s democratic order. The Party finds it difficult to understand how Senator Hope Uzodinma/APC, who came 4th in the March 9, 2019 governorship election, with just 96,458 votes, will suddenly, by the token of the judgment of the Supreme Court, defeat Gov Emeka Ihedioha/PDP that scored 276,404 votes. In fact, the @OfficialPDPNig and indeed, most Nigerians are still at a loss as to understand the basis upon which the Supreme Court arrived at its decision. The party says it is lamentable that the destiny of the people of Imo state is being taken from the governor they chose and voted for and handed over to individuals and a political party that do not have their blessing and mandate and which they rejected at the election. The people of Imo state are now confronted with the challenge of having a government that they cannot identify with and which cannot connect with them, having not emanated from them. Moreover, all the gains, including the development and stability already achieved by the people-based government, under Governor Emeka Ihedioha/@OfficialPDPNig administration in the state are now heavily jeopardized. Indeed, the mournful and despondent ambience that now pervades in Imo state is a loud testimony that the judgment did not reflect the expectation of the people of Imo state as expressed at the polls. While recognising that the judgment of the Supreme Court is final, the @OfficialPDPNig however urges all party stakeholders in the state to remain united and calm, and await further instruction from the national leadership on this very sad development.

in politics it's better to be seen as a bad man. than losing power , cos when you lose power it's equal to death .....which is the only thing buhari knows , and one thing Jonathan doesn't ....he relinquished power to the Apc in 2015 , took his eyes off the state politics allowing APC to gather territory , obeying court orders even when they're unfavourable..... all in a bid of trying to be a good man , now buhari is giving not just imo but Nigeria as a whole out to the Apc and the Pdp is toothless !!! one man the apc is paying 2, 360 naira per month , called manna Bb something , is going to come here now an say God bless the good people of imo state .. The judge should have put on a face mask and held a gun , cos no justification whatsoever , for this decision.... this is daylight robbery .... Pathetic !!!!! 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Nothing can be more hypocritical than the above statement credited to PDP. We can remove Imo and replace with Zamfara and see how APC felt when the same Supreme Court through its “token judgement” dashed the state to PDP. The people of Zamfara rejected PDP at the polls but the state was handed over to the party by the token of Supreme Court judgement. The people of Zamfara have adjusted to life under the party they rejected at the polls, I’m sure the people of Imo will also adjust. Such is life! 15 Likes 3 Shares |

nameo: There is nothing strange in the judgement, it was simply the judiciary correcting the wrongs perpetrated by INEC and PDP. What I actually found strange today is the information that INEC declared Ihedioha winner after cancelling APC votes in 388 polling units. They cancelled the voice/votes of over 200,000 voters just to be able to declare Ihedioha. I’m really disturbed that it took the intervention of the Supreme Court to stop such a fraudulent move. I shiver at the thought that they almost got away with silencing the electoral choices of over 200,000 valid voters. 11 Likes |

nameo: Except my memory is now failing me, Imo election was never declared inconclusive. Please read my initial response very well and get my message. I blamed INEC and PDP for the mess. INEC should take more blame because they have the duty of conducting credible election. I’m very sad that those that cancelled over 200,000 valid votes almost got away with it. Unfortunately, nothing will happen to those that committed the crime. Again, Uzodinma got the judgement because he was able to prove that over 200,000 valid votes cast for him were unlawfully deducted. Evidence is what matters in the court of law. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

nameo:I was taken aback with the supreme court judgement initially until I read the details of the judgement. What's strange about the judgement? The facts of the case has been made bare, Votes in favor of HOPE wrongly cancelled were added back by the Supreme Court. He(Hope) now has the highest number of Votes consequently returned elected! The question that arises then is, does the supreme court has power to add back votes already cancelled by INEC? From a layman's point view I think answer is YES. Hopefully in the days ahead legal luminaries will elucidate on this matter and the whole contentious issues will be adequately addressed 6 Likes 1 Share |
Re: PDP Press Statement On Supreme Court Judgement by nameo: 11:03pm On Jan 14, 2020 |
seunmsg: Exactly! It was never declared inconclusive. Bros, we are not talking about 1000 or 5000 votes here or there but 236,000 votes in 388 units( what is the total number of valid voters and no of units in Imo state). How is it possible that such a huge number and from such a huge units is cancelled for only one candidate? And none was cancelled for other candidates in these 388 units? Who cancelled it? INEC? Again, does that make any sense to you? Assuming this happened, it would be the most outrageous crime i.e political fraud, ever conducted in the history of elections in Nigeria and maybe even the world. How could INEC have been able to succesfully done that? 3 Likes 1 Share |

seunmsg: I'm in total agreement with your views. The problem is very disturbing. Hopefully the INEC will have the will and actually guard against such heinous acts by its field officers - or any officer at any level - in the future. If only the NASS - along with the executive - will help sanitize the system by putting in place an electoral legislation that mitigates all the major loopholes we currently have to grapple with... ........
