The Independent National Electoral Commission had declared Governor Nyesom Wike of the PDP winner of the election, after weeks of suspending collation of the results of the governorship election.
The main opposition party alleged the two Ministers are allegedly working on the CJN to reverse the February 12, 2019 final judgment of the Supreme Court upholding the exclusion of the governing All Progressives Congress from the Rivers election. Based on the ruling of the apex court, INEC had excluded the Rivers APC from the ballots in the 2019 federal legislative, governorship and state assembly polls.
“In the course of the elections, the APC however adopted the governorship candidate of the African Action Congress , bankrolled his election and made compromised security agents and thugs available to him, with the view to using them to muscle votes.“In spite of these conspiracies by the APC, the will of the people of Rivers state prevailed, as they braved the odds, resisted all machinations and voted overwhelmingly for the PDP and all its candidates.
I see nothing wrong in the Supreme Court reviewing the bases of its earlier decision. If the bases were right, the outcome of the decision will be the same, and if wrong, it will ensure Justice is served which is good for our Democracy and Jurisprudence
Amen
So shall it be! There was never any election but kangaroo.
