The national youth leader of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Muhammed Kadade, has said that heavens will not fall over Nigeria if the victory of President Bola Tinubu is nullified by the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal.
He maintained that the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar, was the legitimate winner of the 2023 presidential election.
Mr Kadade stated this in a video message posted on his social media handles on Friday.
According to him, the verdict of the tribunal will play a major role in determining the fate of the nation.
While lamenting the current economic hardship in the country, the youth leader said Mr Tinubu has proved to be a novice in leadership and governance.
He said, “Today Nigeria is sinking socially and economically. We must rise to defend the honour and glory of our founding fathers.
“In February this year, millions of Nigerians came out in enmasse to vote, but we all witnessed how our mandate was robbed.
“Apparently, those imposed on us have proven to be novice in governance, hence the removal of fuel subsidy, without a blueprint, which has resulted in hardship and suffering across the nation.
“The presidential election petition tribunal has concluded its hearing, and justice remains the fulcrum of which human civilization revolves.
“Justice grants legitimacy to leadership and governance. Without justice, public affairs shall rot in crime. Our justice system remains the point of last hope, after which the fate of our great nation shall either be good or in vain.
“As the nation awaits its fate and legitimacy pronouncement, let us all be in the hope that the fate of our great nation is not doomed. Heaven will not fall if the election is nullified. Therefore, we call on the Tribunal to grant the ultimate justice by declaring the presidential candidate of our great party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, as the legitimate winner of the 2023 presidential election”.
