All Progressives Congress (APC) has reacted to the appeal filed by Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential candidate in last 2023 general elections, before the Supreme Court.
National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Barrister Felix Morka, in a statement on Monday said the main opposition party and its candidate, would be deluding themselves to “imagine that it can get through the court what it deservedly failed to get through the polls.”
The statement maintained that defeat awaits the PDP in its appeal before the apex court.
The statement reads in part:” Deep in hallucination, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has expressed confidence that its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, would prevail in his appeal at the Supreme Court.
This vain confidence was expressed in its statement of October 22, 2023.
“Court cases are won on the strength of cogent, credible, compelling or substantial evidence, not on hollow, implausible, capricious tales and fabrications of the kind that Atiku Abubakar dumped on the court in the guise of a “body of evidence”, evidencing nothing.
“The PDP must also be thoroughly deluded to imagine that it can get through the court what it deservedly failed to get through the polls. Its claim that the election was “manipulated” against its candidate is both ridiculous and insulting to millions of Nigerians who voted massively for the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its Presidential Candidate, now President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“The PDP and its candidate’s desperate resort to blackmail, disinformation, misinformation and malicious falsehoods against the President and our great Party is intended to prospectively downplay what promises to be a spectacular and ignominious defeat that awaits the PDP and its nemesis of a presidential candidate.”
