The All Progressives Congress (APC) on Monday slammed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for expressing optimism that the Supreme Court would proclaim Atiku winner of the 2023 presidential election.
The APC in a statement by the National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, emphasized that “deep in hallucination, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has expressed confidence that its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, would prevail in his appeal at the Supreme Court.”

The party noted that the vain confidence was expressed in the PDP statement on October 22, 2023.
APC, therefore, declared: “Court cases are won on the strength of cogent, credible compelling or substantial evidence, not on hollow, implausible, capricious tales and fabrications of the kind that Atiku Abubakar dumped on the court in the guise of a “body of evidence”, evidencing nothing.”
APC stated that the PDP must also be thoroughly deluded to imagine that it can get through the court what it deservedly failed to get through the polls.

The APC in the statement declared:
“Its claim that the election was “manipulated”against its candidate is both ridiculous and insulting to millions of Nigerians who voted massively for the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its Presidential candidate, now President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“The PDP and its candidate’s desperate resort to blackmail, disinformation, misinformation and malicious falsehoods against the President and our great party is intended to prospectively downplay what promises to be a spectacular and ignominious defeat that awaits the PDP and its nemesis of a presidential candidate.”
