Sunday Aborisade in Abuja

The political family of the late DAAR Communications Chairman, Dr. Raymond Dokpesi, known as  the D37, has applauded the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic party in the 2023 elections, Atiku Abubakar, for unearthing the misery surrounding the academic records of President Bola Tinubu.

The group in a statement yesterday, in Abuja, said Atiku’s victory in the  United States of America District Court of Illinois was a triumph of justice.

The D37 also commended Atiku Abubakar for his doggedness and conviction that the judiciary was the last hope of the common man and his belief in the tenets of democracy, clean politics and the rule of law.

The statement was signed by the Chairman of the Dokpesi political family, Senator Victor Kassim Isa Oyofo, and secretary, Dr. Alex Ter Adum.

They described Atiku Abubakar as resolute and valiant fighter for democracy and justice.

The group noted that Atiku’s political life in the last three decades showed the trajectory of a man, who has used his political struggles to achieve landmark constitutional locus classicus to strengthen and enhance the survival of democracy in Nigeria .

The group cited the AGF V Atiku Abubakar, which reinforced the fact that the joint presidential ticket was inseparable and denied the president and governors the power to remove the vice president and deputy governors from office.

“Atiku Abubakar V INEC which settled the jurisprudence on the powers of the electoral management body to disqualify candidates for election,” it added.

According to the group the resilience of Atiku Abubakar to unmask the identity and academic qualifications of Bola Ahmed  Tinubu, which according to them, has been a subject of debate as well as the  thwarting of the third term agenda of President Olusegun Obasanjo and many others were tilted towards enriching Nigerians democracy.

Calling on Nigerians home and in the diaspora to demand justice, fairness and equity, the group challenged the Supreme Court to redirect the 2023 elections experiences and bar the wave of “unconstitutional overthrows arising from civil discontent with the management of the conduct of elections and its fallouts elsewhere in West Africa.”
