The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stands by its findings and declaration that the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its leaders are responsible for the killings, bloodletting and acts of terrorism in our country. The PDP asserts that the resort to blackmail, threats and attack on the PDP and other well-meaning Nigerians as witnessed in APC’ statement today, in which it attempted to trivialize, politicize and dismiss the alarming violence in the country, cannot deter the PDP from further exposing the atrocities of the APC and its leaders. Our party insists that every material evidence shows that the APC and its leaders are implementing their Janjaweed agenda to balkanize and destroy our nation through their unholy body language, divisive policies, violent acts, abuse of human rights, disregard to our national sensibilities and shameful patronizing of terrorists and bandits, which have led to widespread killings, violence and dissonances across our nation. The APC and its administrati...

Hon, Kassim Abdulkareem (Etsako Central PDP Chairman) congratulate His Excellency, Governor Godwin Obaseki, for a well deserved victory, which proved that the opposition party in Edo State APC was only chasing shadows over Godwin Obaseki Certificate despite knowing that Obaseki is well learned without doubt.

  The verdict of the Supreme Court on the certificate forgery case brought against me by the All Progressives Congress (APC), during the 2020 governorship election, is a vindication of the decision of God and the people of Edo State. The ruling puts to rest the diabolical controversy contrived by opposition elements over my credentials and puts to shame the individuals that sought to swindle Edo people with falsehood and lies in pursuit of pecuniary gains.  The judiciary has once again, demonstrated that it is willing and capable of defending our democracy. I see this victory as a renewed call by God Almighty to rededicate myself to His service and that of the people of Edo state. From the statement by the Supreme Court Justices, it is clear that they align with what Edo people knew all along, which is that there was no merit in the case. The controversy was diabolical and ill-willed. It is reassuring that the Judiciary has upheld the wishes of the masses once again. I dedicat...

The popular Edo State leader known as Rice Man, Bar. Ken Imansuangbon, the brand face of Edo politics, has congratulated Governor Godwin Obaseki, Comrade Philip Shaibu and the entire Edo State people for the victory secured resoundingly at the supreme court, and urged APC to change their weapons to tools so that they can join officially in building Edo of their dreams. "I heartily congratulate my brother and friend, the Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki and Comrade Philip Shaibu for this victory. My joy knows no bounds even when I couldn't attend due to other leadership calls in the state. I have always said APC should let Edo move forward by dropping their legal weapons. Elections are won at polling units, not through hearsays and backdoors. The national assembly as a matter of urgency, should look at this aspect in the electoral bill to do everything possible to capture this before it is passed into law. We have seen cases like Imo State where the popular mandate of the peo...

The Deputy Governor of Edo State Comrade Philip Shaibu, has described the Nigeria Judiciary as the referee of Nigria's Democracy through enforcement of the rule of law, to protect the minorities from the power of the majority, despite their attempts to tilt the playing field against the rules.  "The ruling of the Supreme Court today has shown that the Judiciary does not lack teeth. The rule of law is the strong pillar and rock on which Nigeria's democracy stands. Every other foundation is made of sinking sand because the judiciary is no longer bound by artificial limitations," he said. Comrade Philip Shaibu who was reacting with enthusiasm over the Supreme Court judgement today, that reaffirmed the victory of Governor Godwin Obaseki in a landmark judgement, said the Supreme Court displayed decisional  and institutional independence which underscores the ability of the judiciary to make decisions free from Political influence.  According to him, the Judiciary constitut...
