Appeal Court GEP Judgment: Nasarawa PDP Expresses Confidence in Judiciary
By Amina Mohammed, Lafia
Ahead of the Appeal Court judgment on the Nasarawa State Governorship Elections, the People’s Democratic Party, PDP has expressed confidence in the nation’s judiciary, describing the institution as the last hope of those who seek justice.
In a statement signed by the PDP Publicity Secretary, Ibrahim Hamza, the party urged residents to remain calm, avoid tension and provocation but be prayerful for a renewed hope that the judiciary would ensure justice.
The party advised their supporters and the entire residents of the state to remain united, steadfast, and committed in their quest for a united Nasarawa state.
“While you remain committed to freedom, peace, and development of the state irrespective of the level of provocation from those desperate to govern you at all cause, draw the state backward and set chaos and confusion among us, do not be carried away by their unpopular antics”.
The party, however, assures the people of the State of their confidence to claim victory.
“Go about your daily affairs peacefully as we believe that adequate security will be made by the security services before, during, and after the declaration of the appeal judgment”.
“Residents of Nasarawa State should play their part to avoid being involved in the breakdown of law and order of whatever dimension.
“Because the judges preceding over our case would be guided by the rule of law, fear of God, shun all forms of intimidations”.
The statement further advised that all should be guided against engaging in actions that could tend to unpleasant situations after the judgment.
“Unguarded statements from politicians likely to increase unnecessary tension or undermine the security arrangements and the sanity of the judicial system should be avoided,” the statement added.
