The Taminu Turaki-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has hinted at the real reason behind court ruling in favour of the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike’s camp.
It claimed that ‘politics of power, money and greed’ may
have influenced the decision of the Federal High Court to strike out its suit
seeking the recognition of its leadership.
This is contained in a statement by the faction’s National
Publicity Secretary, Ini Ememobong, on Friday.
According to the spokesperson, the ruling was disappointing,
stating that political interests may have influenced the the verdict of the
court.
While saying they they respected the court, Ememobong said
the did not agree with its ruling, stressing that the court’s decision was not
in accordance with previous judgments of the Court of Appeal and the Supreme
Court.
“While we respect the judgment of the trial court, we
respectfully consider that it is against the extant judgments of the Appeal and
apex courts, leaving the plaintiffs with no option but to appeal the judgment
and the rulings therein,” the party said.
The PDP faction further revealed that they had already
instructed their lawyers to challenge the ruling at the Court of Appeal.
It expressed the optimism that as they take the case to the
Appeal Court, the survival of true opposition and multi-party democracy will be
assured and they will get their victory.
According to the party, the politics of power, money and
greed may last for a while, expressing the certainty of victory regardless of
the judgment by the Federal High Court.
