All Progressives Congress (APC) stakeholders, under the
umbrella of National Coalition of APC Progressives Stakeholders have mocked the
New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) for organising an “embarrassing 8-man protest”
in London against the judgment of the Kano State Governorship Election Petition
Tribunal which sacked Gov. Abba Yusuf.
The stakeholders while addressing a press conference on
Monday in Abuja said the London protest was organised after a failed attempt to
discredit the tribunal judgement.
Its National Secretary, Isabella Odunayo, who spoke on
behalf of others, said it was shameful that Yusuf and the Kwankwasiyya Movement
only got eight persons for a protest which targeted about 1,000 people, a sign
that Nigerians both home and in the diaspora accepted the judgment in good
faith.
She said the group is addressing the press to respond to some of the lies being circulated by the NNPP, adding that it was barbaric and archaic for the NNPP to toe the part of blackmail calling for justice in far away London when justice has already been served with the judgment of the tribunal.
Her words: “After failed attempts to discredit the tribunal
ruling, the NNPP desperation took them to London where it sponsored a protest
to blackmail the federal government and discredit the tribunal judgment.
Unknown to the organizers, Nigerians in the diaspora had watched clips of the
jubilation that trailed the APC victory at the tribunal.
“It is shameful that Engr. Abba Kabir Yusuf and the
Kwankwasiyya Movement only got eight persons for a protest which targeted about
1,000 people, a sign that Nigerians both home and in the diaspora accepted the
judgment in good faith.
“The NNPP should be aware that the judiciary cannot be
intimidated by its threat as security agencies in Nigeria are fully prepared to
secure the Country. The eight people led by Dr Aminu Bello who embarrassed
themselves yesterday (on Sunday) in London do not represent the interest of
Nigerians.”
