Tribunal victory validates Buhari’s popularity- APC youths leader

Cross River State Youth Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and State Coordinator of the Field Operations Directorate of the 2019 Presidential Campaign Council, Mr. Effiom-Ekaha Otu has congratulated President Muhammadu Buhari on his victory at the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal.

In a statement issued by the Coordinator, he described the ruling of the tribunal as a validation of the popular mandate given to President Buhari by Nigerians at the 2019 polls.

It said; “We in Cross River State APC are not surprised by the victory of President Muhammadu Buhari at the Tribunal. It is a clear and final validation of the popular mandate given him by Nigerians.”

The APC leader went further to advise the opposition Peoples Democratic Party to be graceful in defeat by allowing the President to focus on the onerous task of nation building rather than dissipating time and resources on endless litigation.

“I call on the Peoples Democratic Party and its candidate to be graceful in defeat. This is a critical period in our nationhood and it is important to encourage and co-operate with President Buhari as he seeks to build the nation building and foster economic growth, rather than waste time on endless lawsuits,” he concluded.
