The party gave the commendation in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Kola Ologbondiyan
on Wednesday in Abuja.
Ologbondiyan said that the ruling was an inevitable validation of the wishes and aspiration of the people as
expressed in the March 2019 governorship elections in the respective states.
“The PDP observes that the ruling of the apex court is a victory for democracy and the triumph of the people over
forces that sought to forcefully take over control of their states,” he said.
Ologbondiyan urged the governors to continue in their qualitative governance for which the people overwhelmingly
re-elected them.
He also advised the governors to continue in their commitment to programs that were geared towards empowering
the people and reducing the level of poverty in the country.
He reminded the governors as well as all other officials elected and appointed on the platform of the party that
Nigerians across the board were looking up to them for solutions.
