PDP CHIEFTAIN AFFIRMS JUDICIARY'S INDEPENDENCE

PDP

Former lawmaker and Chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Joe Emenaha, described the Supreme Court judgement validating the chairmanship of Ahmed Makarfi as a demonstration of the independence of the judiciary.

Speaking with NAN in Abuja on Wednesday, he said the judgment is not only a new dawn for Nigeria's democracy but also a roadmap towards a better and stronger opposition.

"The judgment shows that our judiciary, no matter what people say, is not corrupt and very determined to strengthen our democracy.

"Every form of corruption and lack of integrity must be stamped out now with this judgment because we have seen an unbiased court ready to uphold justice," he said.

Emenaha, who described PDP as the reliable alternative, said that it is time for the party to bounce back.

PDP's resurrection

The fprmer lawmaker expressed confidence in the integrity and capability of Makarfi to lead the party to glory, saying that PDP has resurrected from the gallows.

"We should all look forward to a national convention in which the future of the party will be decided," he said.

The lawmaker congratulated Makarfi on his victory but advised him to embrace all factions for a progressive political party.

Justice Bode Rhodes-Vivour of the Supreme Court validated the PDP National Convention held in Port Harcourt on May 21, 2016.

Rhodes-Vivour said the Sheriff-led National Executive Committee was dissolved at that convention in line with the party's constitution.
