Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu has joined other prominent Nigerians to hail the decision of the Court of Appeal, which reinstated Mr. Eyitayo Jegede, SAN, as candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the Ondo State governorship election.
“The freeness, fairness, and credibility of an election, go beyond what happens on an election day. The process, especially the right of the party faithful to choose a flag bearer of their own freewill unhindered by subterfuge, manipulation, intimidation, and abuse of any form, are equally as important and indeed foundational to the soundness of the election itself.
“I am, therefore, happy that the Court of Appeal has spoken loudly, and in a speedy and just manner that raises hope for the nation’s democracy. This judicial victory is good tonic that will unite the PDP family the more and spur us to a more resounding victory in the Ondo governorship race”, Ekweremadu said.
