APC reacts to Supreme Court’s judgement on Plateau governorship dispute
The All Progressives Congress (APC), Plateau State chapter says it accepts the Supreme Court judgement that affirmed Gov. Caleb Mutfwang as the winner of the March 18, 2023, election in good faith.
The Apex Court on Friday, reversed the Nov. 19, decision of the Appeal Court that nullified Mutwang’s election and declared Dr Nentawe Yilwatda as the winner of the election.
Mr Sylvanus Namang, APC Publicity Secretary in Plateau, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Jos that the party accepts the verdict in the spirit of sportsmanship.
Namang said that the contest was no personal but a tussle between two political parties in the interest of Plateau people.
The publicity secretary called on APC members and supporters to remain law abiding and refrain from any act contrary to the party’s culture.
He urged them to avoid anything that could jeopardise peace and peaceful coexistence on the Plateau.
Namang said that APC believes in maintaining decorum and peace at all time, no matter the situation.
“Our party is a respecter of the rule of law and a strong believer in our judicial system, hence, we take the outcome in good faith,’’ he said.
