FCT Polls: We’re Working With Turaki Leadership To Reclaim PDP’s Mandate, Says CP-PDP

The Conference of Professionals in the Peoples Democratic Party (CP-PDP) has said it is working with the Kabiru Tanimu Turaki national leadership to legally reclaim the party’s electoral mandate in last Saturday’s Federal Capital Territory (FCT) elections.

The group stated this in a message congratulating the Chairman-elect of Gwagwalada Area Council, Mohammed Kasim and the various Councilors over their victory declaration by INEC in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Council election on Saturday.

The CP-PDP, in a statement by its pro term national chairman, Barr. Obinna Nwachukwu, insisted that by the popularity of the PDP and actual preference by voters at the various polling units, the PDP clearly also won the Chairmanship seats in other Area Councils including Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), and Bwari where the PDP had overwhelming dominance in spite of the attacks and underhand tactics by the All Progressives Congress (APC).

“The manifest popularity and performance of the PDP in the FCT election despite the serial attacks, threats, intimidation, propaganda, lies and extensive shenanigans by the APC using the instrumentality of the FCT Minister, Chief Nyesom Wike, further underscore the undisputed strength and potency of the PDP at the grassroot level across the country

“The Conference after a thorough analysis of the election is collaborating with the Kabiru Turaki-led national leadership of the PDP to take strong legal steps to ensure that nobody makes away with any mandate freely given to the PDP in the FCT election,” the group said.

End.
