Ex Presidential Aide Accuses PDP Governors of Issuing Deceptive Statement – –

The Communique supposedly Issued by the PDP Governor’s Discussion board at a Assembly in Port Harcourt the Rivers State capital on Monday, January seventeenth , 2022 comprises a deceptive and misleading assertion supposed to misdirect and prejudice the minds of discerning and real get together members and the Justices of the Supreme Court docket that every one is nicely inside the get together and that the unlawful and illicit actions resulting in the convening of an unconstitutional nationwide conference by underhand dealings which denied its rightful Nationwide Chairman the powers to train his mandate freely given to him by the Nationwide delegates of the get together on the Dec 2017 Nationwide Conference.

Right now that the matter is billed for adjudication by the apex courtroom , it’s foolhardy for an unconstitutional physique to convene and rain accolades on themselves and some accomplices that assisted in truncating a reputable inside democracy . Extremely influential stakeholders with massive following like Dr Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso and a silent majority are awaiting the end result of the judicial trial to chart their political future.

Due to this fact for a stress group to make bogus claims of getting performed a “easy and credible” nationwide conference is certainly a heresy . It’s a identified undeniable fact that the whole train was characterised by flagrant violation of the get together’s structure which has resulted in litigations. How does a political get together that hopes to reclaim energy from an aggressive opponent just like the APC construct its basis on nothing.

Except the get together construct its basis on the rule of legislation and pure justice it’s aspiration could also be encumbered. For the avoidance of doubt the difficulty as to the credibility or in any other case of the purported nationwide conference is earlier than the very best courtroom of the land for willpower, subsequently it is going to be reckless and quantity to a political subterfuge to copiously craft and disseminate a misleading communique which seeks to breath life to a lifeless motion. Such an motion can not deter the trigger and course of justice.
