We Accept Outcomes Of Supreme Court Judgment On 6 Governorship Elections – APC
By Hussaini Ibrahim Sulaiman
The All Progressives Congress, APC, says it has accepted the Supreme Court decisions on election petitions challenging the outcome of the 2023 governorship elections in six states.
Felix Morka, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, while reacting to the development in a statement on Friday in Abuja, said “In every contest, you win some and lose some”.
Mr Morka said the APC as a party, would continue to submit to the dictates of the rule of law.
The apex court affirmed APC’s gubernatorial mandates in Gombe, Ogun, Nasarawa, Kaduna and Kebbi states.
The court, however, decided in favour of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Delta.
“In every contest, you win some and lose some, but we must all continue to submit to the dictates of the rule of law and constitutional order.
“We congratulate the winners, particularly our Governors, Inuwa Yahaya (Gombe), Dapo Abiodun (Ogun), Abdullahi Sule (Nasarawa), Uba Sani (Kaduna) and Nasir Idris (Kebbi),” he said.
The APC spokesman, therefore, urged all the party’s members to remain calm and peaceful.
