Those who think they have the power to pervert justice should remember that there is judgment day, says Atiku

Ex Vice president, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar 

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the February 2019 general election, Atiku Abubakar, has urged Nigerians not to underestimate the effect of their belief that justice will be done at the Supreme Court on the embarrassing tribunal judgement that affirmed Buhari’s victory.



He said even if they (Nigerians) have nothing they can do, they should just believe that justice can be done.

Atiku had sued Buhari, INEC and APC in the aftermath of Buhari’s declaration as the winner of the presidential election, seeking to upturn the victory and the declaration that he (Atiku) was the winner.




In a series of tweets on his verified twitter handle on Friday, the ex-vice president said that those who think they have power and the right to pervert justice to their favor should not forget that there is death and everyone will give account to their creator.

His words, “I note the immense outpouring of goodwill from ordinary Nigerians in every nook and cranny of Nigeria and from all regions, religions and relationships.


“Once again I thank you all for your support.

“I also thank the governors elected on the platform of my party, the Peoples Democratic Party, as well as the National Executive Committee, for their unanimous and unambiguous support for the judicial phase of this struggle, especially after it was announced that we would go on to appeal.

“I urge all Nigerians to continue their support for this recourse to constitutional order via the courts.



“Even if there is little or nothing you can do to ensure that justice is done in Nigeria, just believe that it will happen.

“Let us never underestimate the effect of our belief.

“Finally, I say to all concerned, that we will all die and give account of our lives to our Creator.

“Thank you and may God bless Nigeria.”
