PDP Celebrates Appeal Court Judgement Affirming Ighodalo’s Eligibility.”

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has celebrated the Appeal Court’s decision confirming Asue Ighodalo’s eligibility for the Edo State governorship election on September 21, 2024.

The party claimed that the Court of Appeal’s unanimous decision to uphold Ighodalo’s eligibility is yet another resounding victory for the collective will and aspirations of the people of Edo State.

In a statement issued by its spokesman, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, the PDP described the Appeal Court decision, which established the authenticity of Ighodalo’s INEC voter’s card, as another victory for truth over the APC’s lies, falsehood, and propaganda.

“The Appeal Court’s decision that the litigation against Dr Asue Ighodalo was without merit and based on flawed assumptions strengthens the PDP’s position that the several court cases filed against Dr Asue Ighodalo were contrived, frivolous, and aimed solely at distracting our candidate and the people of Edo State.

“It is public knowledge that the APC was desperate to stop Dr. Asue Ighodalo with multiple court cases, knowing that its candidate, Monday Okpebholo, who is practically empty, purposeless, and uninspiring, is no match for the PDP candidate at the poll.

“Today’s judgement of the Court of Appeal has therefore practically brought the APC to its knees and wits end. The APC, its candidate, Monday Okpebholo, and his propaganda machine, led by Adams Oshiomhole, should counsel themselves, as it is not too late for the APC to withdraw from the race,” the party said.

The PDP commended the people of Edo State for their support for the party and Ighodalo and urged them to remain resolute and vigilant as the party will coast to victory come September 21, 2024.
