The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar, on Friday congratulated opposition governors whose elections were upheld by the Supreme Court.
Pmnews.ng reports that the apex court upheld the elections of opposition party governors Dauda Lawal (Zamfara), Abba Yusuf (Kano), Caleb Muftwang (Plateau) and Bala Mohammed (Bauchi).
Atiku, in a statement by his media office, described the apex court’s judgement as a win for democracy.
Atiku also reaffirmed his earlier statement that only a united opposition force can strengthen democracy in Nigeria.
The statement partly reads: “I am as prepared as ever to lead the charge, alongside all our leaders and governors, for the good of our country.
“Where justice is seen to have been substantially rendered, we, as patriots and citizens, will always applaud.
“There is a guaranteed continuation of the standards of good governance which the PDP has brought to the respective states.”
