The 2019 Peoples Democratic
Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has assured Nigerians that
he would accept the verdict of the Presidential Election Tribunal on his
petition challenging the emergence of President Muhammadu Buhari as winner of
the election.
He gave the assurance while
stating that he would not allow Nigeria to experience crisis or spilling of
innocent blood in a bid to get justice.
Speaking through the spokesperson
of his campaign organisation, Segun Sowunmi, the former Vice President said he
was more interested in institutional reforms that would enhance national
development.
Addressing journalists yesterday
in Abuja, Showunmi urged judicial officers of the tribunal to do what was
expected of them by delivering judgement in line with their professional
calling.
He said: “We hope and pray that
the cankerworm, nepotism, corruption and lack of integrity that has eaten deep
into the fabrics of this society would be caught.
“But it’s up to the courts to
demonstrate that they are immune. And I think this election tribunal will do
its work. People want to know how it will go, and of course, we don’t have a
choice, we will accept the verdict of history, we will accept the verdict of
the court.
“However, there is no way you can
edge it, Atiku is already the winner of the 2019 presidential election in the
minds of the people.
“For he is the leader of
opposition now, Atiku is not going to be silenced with whatever the outcome
will be.”
