PEPT judgement: We’re yet to recover from shock, they should’ve ordered rerun – PDP chieftain

The Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ibrahim Abdullahi, has said the party is yet to recover from the shock of the ruling of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal.

Abdullahi wondered why the judges ruled that there was nothing wrong with the last presidential election.

On Wednesday, the tribunal dismissed all petitions from the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar and his counterpart from Labour Party, Peter Obi against President Bola Tinubu.

The court had affirmed Tinubu’s victory in the February 14 presidential election.

Reacting to the tribunal outcome, Abdullahi said it would have made much sense if the tribunal had ordered a rerun.

Featuring on Arise Television on Friday, Abdullahi said there was enough evidence provided by the PDP to nullify the election.

According to Abdullahi: “There was a lot of evidence that was provided by the parties to nullify the election.

“If the judges had nullified the election and ordered a rerun, it would’ve made a lot of sense.

“But for the respected judges to say that from the beginning to the end, there’s nothing wrong with the election; it’s a shock to us. We are yet to recover from the shock.”
