DELTA GUBER ELECTION TRIBUNAL AND THE PHANTOM APC/LP EXHIBITS



The petition before the Delta State Governorship tribunal sitting in Asaba filed by the Delta State, All Progressive Congress (APC) and the Labour party against the election of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa is one that has attracted sufficient interest and commentaries.

It should be so considering Delta State’s enviable status in the comity of States in the federation. What however is funny is the impression created by desperate APC and Labour party agents that there will be a re-run in the State. In truth, if the court were not bound by law to sit on this case to the end, the Justice Gumi chaired tribunal would have found it easy to throw out this case for lack of merit and strong evidence.

The phantom evidences presented to the court by most of their principal witnesses are laughable. Even at the election tribunal siting within the premises of the State High Court, politicians have not hidden their tendency for mischief and lies. Most of their witnesses told the tribunal that elections did not hold on 11th April 2015.

 However, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa’s defense team has had no troubles in tearing these testimonies to shreds.

As we continue to x-ray phantom exhibits and weigh evidences put together by the APC and Labour party, even as the court makes up its mind too. We implore the APC hirelings and social media warriors not to throw the peace and progress of this State to the dogs on the altar of ungodly vengeance mission. What God has done no man can change. No man is greater than God.
