Verdict, A Subversion Of Justice, Says Pdp...heads To Supreme Court by remababy2: 6:26pm On Sep 11, 2019
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) completely rejects the judgment of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal describing it as provocative, barefaced subversion of justice and direct assault on the integrity of our nation’s justice system.

The party is particularly shocked that the tribunal failed to point to justice despite the flawless evidence laid before it, showing that President Buhari was not only unqualified to contest the election but also did not score the majority of valid votes at the polls.

The PDP finds as bewildering that a court of law could validate a clear case of perjury and declaration of false information in a sworn affidavit, as firmly established against President Muhammadu Buhari, even in the face of incontrovertible evidence.

The party is also rudely shocked that the Court took over the roles of the Respondents’ lawyers who clearly abandoned their pleadings by refusing to call evidence in defense of the petition. The court raked up all manner of excuses to make up for the yawning gaps occasioned by the total absence of any evidence from the Respondents.

Nigerians and the international community watched in utter disbelief when the tribunal ruled that one need not provide a copy or certified true copy of educational certificate such individual claimed to possess, contrary to established proof of claims of certification.

The party notes as strange that the court even went ahead to provide rationalizations in favour of President Buhari, even when all hard facts before it shows that he did not possess the claimed educational certificate and that the Army was not in possession of his WAEC certificate as claimed in the affidavit he deposed to in his Presidential nomination form.

The PDP also described as shocking that the court approved the flawed declaration of President Buhari as the winner of the election despite evidence to show the perpetration of illegalities, manipulations, alterations and subtraction of valid votes freely given to Atiku Abubakar by Nigerians.

Indeed, the pervading melancholic atmosphere across our nation since the verdict is a direct indication that the judgment has not fulfilled the desires and expectations of Nigerians.

The PDP however encouraged Nigerians to remain calm and not to lose hope or surrender to despondency or self-help, as our lawyers are upbeat in obtaining justice at the Supreme Court.

This is more so as the tribunal itself admitted that there are several errors in the judgment.

The expected reaction from the party of sore losers. We never expected them to accept the sound judgement of the PEPT in good faith. They are not even sober that they lost by a unanimous decision. Their lawyers couldn’t even convince just one of the five judges to support the Atiku petition. Shameless lots.

Typographical errors in the judgement to be corrected before copies are given to legal parties.
That's when they have time to study the judgement very well.
Plenty money still to be made by lawyers.
No problem

Atiku's case is aa useless as used tissue paper. I'm disappointed on tribunal that they didn't fine him for wasting court time.

What's your problem with people putting the judiciary to work.

Learn to be civil, the party and her candidate is only exercising their constitutional rights.

What are you scared of ? Is the Herdsmen Judiciary no longer in your pocket ? Relax we will stretch that Nigerian legal system so there is enough evidence for the future to learn from .

After all these shocks,the PDP died.

A party that had all the time and opportunity to prove its case beyond any reasonable doubt but failed to do so is now claiming how shocked it has become and are now national mood guessers.

Bunch of clowns unfit to be an opposition party to a failed government.

There is nothing uncivil about my post. I concede Atiku has the right to take his useless case to the Supreme Court. You must also concede that it is still within my right to post my opinion on the case.

In Saner climes, people only go to court when they have evidence of serious electoral malpractices. Atiku’s case is just a tissue of lies. He lost the election free and square. He should stop being a bad loser and accept his defeat in good faith.

You can hand pick the tribunal judges but not the supreme court court judges.

Both the Sudanese the cameroonian are not my choice candidates but rubbishing the legal profession should never be encouraged as nobody knows tomorrow

Concede he has the right to go to court in the first paragraph.

State why he musn't go to court in the second paragraph.

In saner climes, people should just be straightforward with what they feel.

His case is not useless at least to his supporters and those who want to test the strength if our laws.
The news was seen on tv where some persons were prevented from voting, underage were allowed to vote and the likes.

Let's stop preventing people from exercising theeir constitutional rights because the situation favours us
