PDP Plans Protest Over Supreme Court Judgment In Imo

The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus, on Friday proposed that the party’s National Executive Committee members embark on a protest over the recent judgement of the Supreme Court in Imo State.

The apex court had in the judgment sacked the governorship candidate of the party, Chief Emeka Ihedioha, as the duly elected governor of Imo State.

Speaking during its ongoing emergency NEC meeting in Abuja, Secondus said the proposed protest was to impress it on Nigerians that injustice had been done to the party.

He stated that the mandate given to the party by Imo electorates had been snatched from the party.

According to him, the declaration of the Imo State candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Chief Hope Uzodinma, as the Imo State Governor is a miscarriage of Justice.

He said though the ultimate justice would come from God Almighty, the aggrieved PDP leaders must speak out against injustice as their silence could be taken for consent to the alleged injustice.

Furthermore , the Chairman, PDP Board of Trustees, Senator Walid Jubrin, said he dressed as a warrior in Igbo attire to depict that Nigeria is at ‘war.’

According to him, the alleged injustice in Imo was not only done to PDP but the entire Nigerians.

He stated that the party had not recovered from the alleged injustice.
