Wike's Loss Seems To Have Affected His Sense, We'll Beat Him In Rerun - APC by Episteme2(m): 1:11pm On Oct 27, 2015 |
The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers state says
Nyesom Wike, the incumbent governor, will lose in a
fresh free and fair election.
According to the party, the APC gubernatorial candidate,
Dakuku Peterside, will mercilessly beat Wike in a free and
fair election, The Cable reports.
This was claimed on Monday, October 26, in a statement by
Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, the spokesman for the Rivers APC
chairman.
“If Wike and PDP are convinced that they truly won any
election in Rivers State, we challenge them not to appeal the
tribunal judgement and let the people of Rivers State decide
in a free and fair election ,” the statement read.
The Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Abuja and headed by
Justice Suleiman Ambrosa on Saturday, nullified the April 11,
2015 that produced Wike as governor of Rivers state
, citing irregularities and non-compliance with the provisions
of the Electoral Act. The tribunal ordered for a fresh election
to be conducted within 90 days.
The APC dedicated Saturday’s victory at the tribunal over the
PDP to its members who lost their lives during the campaign
period.
“We wish to formally dedicate the tribunal judgement to our
over 100 members killed by agents of Wike and PDP and
wish to reiterate that their death shall never be in vain as we
are determined to install, by the grace of God and with the
help of the good people of Rivers State, a god-fearing
administration that will take Rivers state to the next level ,”
the statement read.
The party took a swipe at the PDP governor saying, “Wike’s
loss seems to have affected his sense of reasoning; if not,
how could he open his mouth and accuse APC of bribing
tribunals to rule against PDP candidates in the South-South?”
The party reminded Wike and the PDP that both local and
international observers condemned the election in the state
as a sham and an exercise in impunity, lawlessness and
criminality, which can only be applauded by mindless and
demented persons.
The APC therefore called on the tribunal to ignore the
ranting of the PDP.
After the tribunal’s verdict, Wike made it known that that he
will appeal the judgment of the election petition tribunal
nullifying his election.
Speaking on Sunday, October 25, at a thanksgiving service,
Wike said he will complete his four year tenure, in spite of
the ruling of the tribunal. He assured his supporters that
their mandate will be returned as he still had hope in the
judiciary.
The PDP described the verdict of the governorship election
tribunal in Rivers and Akwa Ibom states as completely
bizarre
, unacceptable and part of the script by the APC to
manipulate the will of the people. https://www.naij.com/618829-will-wike-fresh-election-apc-speaks |
