The Kaduna State Chapter of the Peoples Redemption Party, PRP, has rejected Justice A. H. Suleiman’s Tribunal ruling in which Senator Shehu Sani lost his application to upturn the declaration of the Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC as the winner of the senatorial elections in Kaduna Central District.
The party described the decision of the tribunal as most fraudulent in Nigeria’s judicial history. In a press statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday by the Chairman of the Peoples Redemption Party, Kaduna State Chapter, the party said, if their request to recount the votes was allowed, Senator Shehu Sani would have won.
“The PRP Kaduna State chapter rejects and condemn the ruling of the State and National Assembly Elections tribunal on the petition brought before it on the 2019 National Assembly Elections with regards to our candidate Distinguished Senator Shehu Sani.
“The Justice A.H Suleiman ruling was nothing but a Judicial coronation of fraud, a two hours of hot air wasted to cannonize chicanery.
“We wish to bring to spotlight that the tribunal failed to grant our request for a recount of the votes. The defendant, APC candidate never presented even a single witness to the court to justify his victory. The lawyer that represented INEC is Governor Elrufai’s personal Attorney.
“The Tribunal didn’t inform the legal counsel of our candidate Distinguished Senator Shehu Sani of the date of the ruling. The ruling represents a rape of justice and the crowning and glorification of electoral robbery. We maintain that our candidate for the 2019 National Assembly Elections Distinguished Senator Shehu Sani won the Kaduna Central Senatorial election. Our candidate’s votes were clean and their votes were embellished, padded and fused with steroids, typical of their bogus integrity and dubious honesty.
“The so-called APC victory was a product of falsification of figures, ballot stuffing, suppression of our votes and mass thumb printing in their favour, refusal to use card readers, of which the tribunal blessed with the gavel of the court.
“The whole of registered voters in Kaduna Central are less than the overall votes allocated to those that contested. We shall without doubt appeal this ruling without delay.”
“No change can come with people who rig elections; Nothing good can come from representatives who mount the seat of office with a tainted, muddy and Doping mandate. Nigeria’s 2019 general elections is globally adjudged to be fraudulent because of examples like Danbirni.”
