The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has expressed confidence that it will surely get victory at the Court of appeal of Appeal after the Monday ruling on the Ekiti Governorship election tribunal.
The PDP in a press statement signed its National Publicity Secretary and Director, Media & Publicity, PDP Presidential Campaign Organization, Kola Ologbondiyan, urged all its members, particularly those in Ekiti State, not to despair but keep faith with their support for the party.
He said the judgment of the tribunal will surely be overturned at the Court of Appeal and victory handed to the PDP and its candidate, Olusola Eleka, who is the clear winner of the July 14, 2018 Ekiti governorship election.
The statement said: “The Court of Appeal will consider the matter strictly on its merit particularly with the abounding evidence of rigging including violence, vote-buying, ballot stuffing and alteration of results perpetrated by the APC are still intact.

“Though the judiciary is passing through a trying time under the dictatorial tendencies of the Buhari Presidency, the PDP urges the Lord Justices to stand for justice by restoring the mandate freely given to the PDP candidate, Olusola Eleka, at the July 14, 2018 governorship election in Ekiti state.”
The PDP noted that the entire nation and the international community had widely condemned the manipulation that marred the Ekiti governorship election and expressed strong beliefs that justice will be served at the end of the day.
