Presidential polls: PDP expresses disappointment over Supreme Court decision

The party said it was appalled by the judgment of the Court in the petition which it filed alongside the PDP Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar, against the declaration of the All Progressives Congress , and Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as winners of the polls as declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission .

He said, “The PDP and indeed majority of Nigerians are alarmed, disappointed and gravely concerned with the reasoning of the Supreme Court which the PDP believes is against the express provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 , the Electoral Act, 2022, the Guideline and Regulation issued by INEC under which the election was conducted.

“Instead, it trashed the expectation of the majority of Nigerians who looked up to it as a Temple of Impartiality to deliver substantial justice in the matter having regards to the laws and facts of the case. “Nigerians are still at a loss as to how the Supreme Court condoned the serious issues of forgery, falsehood and perjury on the altar of technicalities.
