The Edo State Chapter of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) has said
that the landmark judgement of Supreme Court which declared Ahmed
Makarfi the authentic leader of the Party implies that the satanic
influences retarding the progress of the nation has been defeated.
The Secretary of the Party in the state, Hon. Felix Omi Imoisili,
said this in reaction to the ruling of the Apex Court during an
exclusive chat with DAILY POST on Wednesday.
According to him, the lack of virile opposition to the ruling All
Progressives Congress (APC) in the country, owing to the leadership
crisis in the PDP, was tantamount to Satanic influences working against
the development of the nation.
He noted that Makarfi’s victory is celebrated across Nigeria because
the hands that had tried to muzzle-up key opposition figures through the
leadership crisis in the PDP has been defeated, adding that Nigerians
can now look forward to a viable opposition that will keep the APC on
its toes.
He said, “My reaction to today’s judgement is that of victory over
Satanism. We have formally lain to rest the legal fireworks between
Makarfi and Sheriff that had been on in all the courts. Today, the
Supreme Court has laid it to rest.
“Today, I am very sure that it is not only PDP members that are
celebrating the victory of the Makarfi group today. It is the entire
Nigeria, because a country that those not have a viable opposition can
never ever succeed.
“A country that does not have opposition can never develop. It can
never move forward. You must have a viable opposition in any system,
progress cannot be made.
“The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) was trying to muzzle-up
the main stakeholders of the PDP, and right now the Supreme Court has
spoken and we are happy.
“We are delighted and I am saying again that it is not only PDP
members that are celebrating. It is the entire country because it is for
the good of Nigeria that today we have a viable opposition.”
