The All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, has praised the judiciary for standing firm in defence of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and its status.

 

Reacting to the unanimous judgment delivered by the three Justices of the Appeal Court, Kano Judicial Division, day the National Chairman of the party, Dr. Victor Ike Oye, through the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Barrister Tex Okechukwu, described the judgment as a watershed in Nigeria’s political life.

 

He praised the Justices that sat over the case for their courage, uprightness and commitment to the promotion of justice, equity and fairness.

 

Dr. Oye said that the judgment has renewed the hope of the people of Nigeria in the judiciary and appealed to the National Judicial Commission and the Disciplinary Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association to ensure that any judge or lawyer found guilty of professional misconduct would be brought to justice.

The National Chairman thanked members of the National Working Committee (NWC) National Executive Council (NEC) and Board Of Trustees of APGA for their individual and collective roles in stabilising the party while the distraction lasted, and appealed to them not to relent.
