As the Supreme Court prepares to deliver its judgment on the March 18, 2023, gubernatorial election in Nasarawa state, the youth wing of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has called for justice and fair judgement.

The PDP youths, who made the call during a staged protest in the state, led by its leader, Sani Mohammed, commended President Bola Tinubu for not interfering on judicial matters.

They also commended the apex court on the various judgements delivered on the 2023 governorship elections petitions, stressing that its ruling for the Nasarawa guber must reflect on the voices of the masses in the state.

Daily Trust reports that the protesters gathered in large numbers, chanting slogans and waving placards with messages like “Justice for the PDP” and “Let Democracy Prevail”, among others.

Mohammed said: “We came here to commend our president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, for not interfering with the judiciary and secondly we want to call all the supreme court judges to do justice especially in this Nasarawa case.

“Whoever won on the 18th of March, 2023, let them give victory to the owner of the mandate and that is why we are here. We also call on our people to be law abiding, we don’t want any distraction in Nasarawa state, we don’t want any trouble in Nasarawa state. Our own, what we are looking for is our victory and by the grace of God Ombugadu will become the governor of Nasarawa state.

“I am fully satisfied with supreme court judgements so far, especially in Kano and Plateau state. I want to commend the Supreme Court for doing that and I want them to replicate such a decision in Nasarawa state by the grace of God.”

Corroborating, one of the PDP stakeholders, Hon. Awaisu Abdullahi, said: “Looking at the happenings in the country, most especially, we want to use this opportunity to thank Mr. President for not interfering in the judicial process, most especially as it concerns the supreme court.

“We are happy so far and in that our morale is very high and you can see even before tomorrow music in every members’ houses, in their units, in the wards and in the state, we are happy. We know that as we go there tomorrow, we will return victorious.”
