PDP Is Confident Of Winning At Presidential Tribunal – Peter Obi
LAGOS JULY 21ST (NEWSRANGERS)-The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Vice Presidential candidate in the last election, Mr Peter Obi has said the party is still hopeful of taking over the reins of power in the country.
Peter Obi, who spoke during the party’s stakeholders meeting in Awka said all hope was not lost as the party had a good case at the ongoing election petition tribunal.
Giving an insight into the ongoing legal fireworks at the tribunal, Peter Obi said, “Election in Nigeria is not easy. After the election, you have to still go to court and queue up, and that is where real money is spent in hiring lawyers. But I must assure you that all hope is not lost because we are progressing steadily.
“The man who is there now has contested for four times before he made it, and we are also confident that in no time, the right thing will be done.
“In church this morning (yesterday), when the priest called up prayers for Nigeria, the man sitting next to me told me he had stopped praying for Nigeria long ago, but rather prays for the removal of APC, since we already know who the problems of the country are.
“Nigerians are already disenchanted with the APC, and even the APC members are also complaining, so that has made PDP a brand today, and marked her out as the only party that can deliver Nigeria.”
According to Peter Obi, as the country stood presently, PDP remained the only hope of a progressive and prosperous Nigeria as the All Progressives Congress, APC, had failed the country and its citizens completely.
He thanked members of PDP in Anambra State, saying that it was only in Anambra that the APC failed to get as little as five per cent.
“That feat was made possible by all of you here despite the fact that they had all the security agencies working for them. And here in Anambra we also had a governor who was strongly against us, but they could not get five per cent, Peter Obi further said.”
