We Are Waiting To Know How Supreme Court Arrived At Decision, Says Galadima

The spokesman for the presidential campaign council of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Buba Galadima, has faulted the
verdict of the Supreme Court on the 2019 presidential election
outcome.

Speaking as a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today on
Wednesday, Galadima said his party is interested in knowing how the
apex court arrived at its decision.

“We are waiting to hear the final analysis of how they arrived
at that decision. And we as Nigerians have a cover under the
Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria whether it supports
our view,” he said.

When asked to react on court judgments given against the PDP’s
favour, Galadima noted that today’s development showed that the
Nigerians were not happy with the ruling.

He explained that if the highest court of the land had upturned
the election of President Muhammadu Buhari, the entire nation would
have been filled with jubilation.

“If this judgment today had been that Buhari was removed from
office, I’m sure that by now, there would have been fireworks all
over this country.

“People would have been jubilating, pouring water on the streets
and celebrating. But have you seen any individual who has
demonstrated that he is happy with this judgment?” he asked.

His comments follow the Supreme Court’s dismissal of an appeal
filed by the PDP and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar,
challenging President Buhari’s victory in the presidential
election.

A 7-man panel led by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Tanko
Muhammad, dismissed Atiku’s appeal for lacking in merit.
