The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has commended the ruling of the court of appeal validating the governorship primary that produced Ademola Adeleke as the candidate of the party in Osun.
In a statement issued on Wednesday, Debo Ologunagba, PDP spokesperson, said the appeal court’s ruling showed that the primary which produced Adeleke is authentic.
“The judgment is a firm confirmation that the Osun State governorship primary was transparently conducted by the Sen. Dr. Iyorchia Ayu-led National Working Committee (NWC) in strict compliance with the provisions of the PDP Constitution and Electoral Guidelines as provided by the Electoral Act and the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended),” the statement reads.
“Our Party commends the Judiciary for its courage, adding that the judgment has further restored the confidence of Nigerians in our judicial system and the processes of the PDP.”
The party added that Adeleke is determined to “institute a transparent, people-oriented and development-based government that will rebuild and revamp Osun State from the misrule of the All Progressives Congress (APC)”.
