The All Progressives Congress (APC) said the party is ready to meet the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar at the Supreme Court over the 2019 presidential poll won by President Muhammadu Buhari.
National chairman of the APC, Mr Adams Oshiomhole, said this Thursday while fielding questions from journalists at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
He said the facts and issues that gave President Buhari victory at the election tribunal would suffice at the Supreme Court.
“We as a party, we are confident, if it is within the Nigerian law, for PDP to go even to the World Court, we will meet them there. The Supreme court is Supreme court of Nigeria not Supreme court of APC or PDP.
“We are ready to meet them, President Buhari is ready to meet defeated Atiku Abubakar at the Supreme Court and the All Progressives Congress is ready to meet PDP at that court and Adam Oshiomhole is ready to meet my brother Secondus (PDP National Chairman) there. He will take second and I will take first,” he said.
He said the PDP had deceived itself for taking its case to the social media, thinking its candidate would be declared winner at the end of the day.
The APC chairman urged Atiku Abubakar and the entire members of the PDP to forget about what happened at the polls and support the president to move the country forward.
“The matter has been resolved and it is time to queue behind the winner and move on. Afterall, our winner is the best example that losing one election is not tantamount to the end of your political life. He lost three and today he is president,” he said.
The APC Chairman thanked the judiciary for doing its job thoroughly and within the confines of the country’s electoral act and other laws.
