According to the group, the split judgement of 2-1delivered by justice Ajayi was not only unfortunate but did not go down well with the peaceful people of Nasarawa state.
“Just as we secured victory at the poll, notwithstanding the recent outcome of the we have utmost confidence that justice would prevail at the appellate court. As politics is described as the business of politicians, so aducation is the business of the legal experts”, the group declared.
“I want to use this medium to thank all our stakeholders and supporters to show their love to the administration of Abdullahi Sule who stand for peace, unity and development of our dear state, Nasarawa”.
The SLA to former president of the Senate noted that the people of the state especially the Wamba citizens would not relent in ensuring that the stolen APC mandate is recovered for those who casted their vote overwhelming for governor Sule during the March 18 Guber election in Nasarawa state.
“We have been watching with keen interest events in the face of the degrading comments by the opposition in the passion of celebration in the preceding weeks. Our efforts will never go in vein” Shammah boasted.
According to the Chairman, APC stakeholders in Wamba, the discerning judgement has not only strengthened their resolve to pursue the appeal, but lay the facts of the case for all to see.
He called on the residents, APC supporters and Nigerians at large to remain calm and avoid undue ultrances for the interest of peace, unity and development of Nasarawa state.
