According to the Cable News, the Diaspora Action For Democracy In Africa (DADA), a Civil Society Organisation (CSO), has observed that the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) has been presented with sufficient evidence to determine the true winner of the recently concluded presidential election.
Some parts of the statement read: “But since it is the prerogative of the court to ensure that truth and justice prevail each time they are disputed, to make room for peace and harmony. The Tribunal has been given enough evidence to prove the real winner of the 2023 presidential election.”
The CSO emphasized that it is crucial for the court to ensure that truth and justice prevail in their judgement, in order to promote peace and harmony in the country. According to a report by The Cable News, DADA expressed this view in Abuja on Thursday, through its spokesperson, Mr Great Jonathan, highlighting the judiciary as the only institution capable of preventing Nigeria from the threat of collapse.
Moreover, the CSO emphasized that the attention of the public has been focused on the judiciary due to the high regard Nigerians have for the law. However, this does not imply that the members of the presidential election tribunal are better equipped to determine the winner of the election, as Nigerians themselves are already aware of the true victor. Furthermore, the CSO asserted that it is the responsibility of the electorate to inform the court about the rightful winner, as they possess more knowledge about the individual they voted for as their president.
