The All Progressives Congress in Rivers State, says nothing will stop the party from being on the ballot in 2023, despite the ruling of the federal high court on Tuesday.
Spokesperson of the party, Darlington Nwauju in a statement said plans to stop the party from contesting next year’s elections in the state are already dead on arrival.
He noted that the party will challenge the ruling of the federal high court and urged party members to remain calm.
“We assure Rivers people that the attempt to rehash the 2019 episode in Rivers State is already dead on arrival. Nothing will stop the APC in Rivers State from being on the ballot in 2023,” he said.
“We do believe firmly that the appellate court shall treat the matter dispassionately and deliver justice in this matter because this is not an action against the primaries of our party, but an attempt at challenging the composition of our delegates list,” he added.
