People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Governorship Candidate, Delta State, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori has called on all his supporters to remain calm over the judgement of the Federal High Court, Abuja.
The court, in the judgement, had, on Thursday, sacked the Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly on the ground of certificate discrepancies.
Stonix News reports that Oborevwori, before his eventual emergence as winner of the PDP governorship primary on Wednesday, May 25, 2022, had reportedly had some hitches related to certificate discrepancies during the screening of aspirants led by the Bayelsa State governor, Douye Diri in Port Harcourt.
In a Press Statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Dennis Otu, the Speaker called on all his supporters and Deltans to remain calm and steadfast in the face of the judgement.
“I wish to appeal to all my supporters, political associates and well-wishers to remain calm and law-abiding over the judgement of the Federal High Court.
“There is no need to panic, all is well. We will certainly appeal the judgement and so let us maintain the peace as all hope is not lost.
“All is well and it will end in praise to the Glory of God Almighty.
“The courts have always been part of our democratic experience ,and our confidence in the judiciary, which is the last hope of the common man, is unwavering.
“So, as we embark on the appeal process, our supporters and indeed Deltans should kindly note and be rest-assured that Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori remains the gubernatorial flag bearer of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State for the 2023 general Elections.
“The Sherrification Movement is well and alive and, by God’s grace, we shall overcome,” he affirmed.
