I
congratulate my political party, the Peoples Democratic Party, on the
successful resolution of its leadership crisis by the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
I believe in
our jurists. We may have issues with some individuals but the Nigerian
judiciary deserves our respect and commendation. They have served this country
well.
Today's
verdict is a judgment where there are no winners or losers. It is a verdict
that will bring our party together. We should all thank the Supreme Court of
the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
As I
congratulate the Ahmed Makarfi led Caretaker Committee, I want to strongly urge
them not to see this as a victory of a section of the party, but as a moral
victory of constitutionality over arbitrariness.
Thus, they
must take inspiration from General Yakubu Gowon and declare a 'no victor and no
vanquished policy'.
As a senior
member of the party, I hereby call on all those who left the party because of
its leadership issues to return to their natural home and build the PDP.
The PDP is
an inclusive vehicle not an exclusive one. We see Nigerians as human beings
deserving of the rule of law, separation of powers and a free market economy
that provides a level playing ground for all.
The party
that gave Nigeria the largest economy in Africa is a party whose heart is large
enough to find a place for all Nigerians.
I thank God
for this day of Justice and may God bless Nigeria. GEJ.
