The All Progressives Congress APC, Ebonyi State, on Wednesday, described as foolishness of the highest order, the demand for certificate of return from INEC by Ebonyi PDP for their purported candidates for an election their said candidates never participated.
Chief Stanley Okoro Emegha, State Chairman of the party, stated this in his office in Abakaliki while interacting with journalist.
Emegha stated further,
"The constitution of Nigeria section 285(13) and the amended electoral laws both 2010 and 2022 including all known cases of both Appeal and Supreme court decisions, already made it clear that you cannot benefit or sue or be used for an election you did not participate as candidate(s).
"It is therefore very funny and childish for PDP to be requesting for Certificate of Return from INEC even without regards to the Abakaliki court order which is a judgement in REM on the seat of the Governor and Deputy Governor of Ebonyi State.
"Ebonyi PDP is warned to desist from deceiving herself and the general public knowing very well that the said judgment have since been appealed and notice of
appeal and stay of execution served on PDP.
"We are now aware of who and who are behind the crisis/cases against Ebonyi State Government including all the insecurity in the state since the Governor defected from PDP to APC. APC Ebonyi state will deal decisively with anyone who leaves his Facebook foolishness in the name of being nominated as candidate and steps Ebonyi State to further their crisis and insecurity.
"Ebonyi State Government is stable and all projects and programmes are ongoing and will never stop.
"Ebonyians are requested to be calm and vigilant and assured that justice is already at hand", he concluded.
