PDP ACCUSES APC OF ATTEMPTING TO INFLUENCE SUPREME COURT ON IMO+URGES S/COURT TO PRESERVE HER INTEGRITY.{PHOTO}.#PRESS RELEASE.

      The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) charges the All Progressives Congress (APC) to desist from its attempts to sway the Supreme Court to jettison the consensus demand by Nigerians for a judicial review and reversal of the defective judgment on the Imo state governorship election. The party also cautioned the APC to end its blackmail and lobbying on the corridors of the judiciary with the view to influence the Supreme Court to snub Nigerians and disregard calls to correct its manifest mistakes on the Imo judgment. The PDP further berates APC leaders, particularly its embattled National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, for attacking Nigerians and blackmailing the judiciary with distortions, manipulations and misrepresentations of facts aimed at diverting attention as well as cowing the Supreme Court from delivering justice in the impending review. It is worrisome that the national chairman of a political party will be making a public boast of a daylight political robbery and parad

    By Sola Olugbemiro      Former Governor of Zamfara State, Abdul Azeez Yari, has met with key arrowheads of his camp in Talata-Mafara today and perfected the first phase of their plan to destabilise the state. An exclusive source who was a member of the caucus that attended the meeting spoke to our reporter on the basis of anonymity that the Yari camp has mapped out a number of clandestine activities attempted at destabilising the administration of Governor Bello Mohammed even at the detriment of the wellbeing of the state. The source, who said he was irked by the decisions taken, could not go along with the plan because according to him, opposition cannot go beyond correction and take the face of destabilising the peace and wellbeing of the people in the state. One of the measures Yari and his team plan to take is to sponsor some members of the proscribed "Yan Sa Kai" to to attack Fulani settlements in order to trigger a fresh feud with the repentant bandits who w
