The People’s Democratic Party, PDP, governors have backed it’s presidential candidate, Alhaji Abubakar Atiku’s move to pursuing the presidential case to the Supreme Court.
The Chairman of the Forum, Mr. Seriake Dickson, on behalf of his colleague-members in a statement on Sunday said the judgement stood justice on its head.
He added that if not challenged at the apex court, it may constitute a hog in the wheel of the nation’s developing democracy.
Dickson who is also the Governor of Bayelsa State said that it will also send wrong signals to the teeming youths and lay a faulty moral foundation for generations of Nigerians yet unborn.
He said, “After painstakingly and prudently understudying line after line of the judgement, several holes were picked and
countless anomalies identified by us. We would be doing a greater disservice and moral injustice to our party, our democracy and
Nigerians in general if we turn blind eyes, swallow such bile and applaud that rape of justice.
“The judgement to say the least has further painted our judiciary with darker colours, only this time around with a never-before-seen blemished coat of tar.
However, we are hopeful that the Supreme Court will rewrite that history by ensuring that such stains and tar are removed from our judicial archives.”
