The All Progressives Congress governorship aspirant, Professor Terhemba Shija on whose case the appellate court ordered fresh primary in Benue State has promised to proceed to Supreme Court.
“For instance, since the court accepted our submission and held that there was no All Progressives Congress governorship primary election in Benue State for the 2023 polls at the first instance, how could there have been any basis or legitimacy for a rerun?
“The resolution of the foregoing and several other issues has compelled us to approach the Supreme Court. “We appeal to APC members and the entire Benue electorate for calm and understanding that the judicial process is part and parcel of democracy,” Shija said in the statement.All rights reserved.
