The Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, Monday constituted a legal committee to look into all the legal issues
surrounding the conduct of the Ekiti governorship election.
This is part of its preparation
to challenge the results declared by the Independent National Electoral
Commission, INEC.
PDP National Publicity Secretary,
Kola Ologbondiyan, disclosed this while speaking with journalists in Abuja.
In his words, “PDP as a party has
constituted a legal committee to look into all the legal angles to the issues
surrounding the Ekiti governorship election with a view to institute
appropriate legal actions.
“We want to assure our members
that we have nothing to fear with the circumstances that happened in Ekiti
state, and to let them know that the we have taken a decision to go the length
of all judicial processes in the electoral situation in the state.
“The entire nation is standing
with the PDP. We believe that Nigerians know the truth of what happened.
Nigerians know that votes were bought in Ekiti state. Nigerians are aware that
there was humiliation of our party members. We are aware that there was
brutalization of our party members.
“Nigerians are also aware that
this government led by the ruling APC, having failed woefully has no capacity
to stand for a true election anywhere in this nation. And that is why they have
colluded with security agencies and INEC and even within their party, APC, to
make sure that they rig us out of Ekiti.
“But we have not seen the end of
it. Like we said earlier on, this political banditry will not stand, at all.
“We, therefore, ask our teeming
members to remain resolute as there is nothing to panic about. It is just a
temporary setback. But we assure our members that the political brigandage will
never stand”.
