The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described the Supreme Court’s verdict on the petition brought before it by the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, as apt.
The APC, in a statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, commended the apex court for dismissing the PDP and Abubakar’s petition and for refusing to be blackmailed against its conscience.
According to the party, the victory won at the Supreme Court would enable the APC-led federal administration to go ahead and face its task of delivering the Next Level programme to the people of Nigeria, congratulating President Buhari, his vice, Professor Yemi Osinbajo (SAN), other party leaders and members of the party.
The party, however, encouraged the opposition party and its presidential candidate to abandon other alleged plans to continue antagonizing the government, saying democratic politics cannot thrive in chaos.
