In a statement Ologbondiyan expressed certainty that Nigerians are behind the PDP and Atiku in the hope that justice will prevail at the end of the day.

“In the face of the anguish, pains, calamitous events, bloodletting, strong division, resentment, insecurity, acute hunger and starvation crippling our country, Nigerians’ only hope is now in the judiciary to save our nation by addressing the substance of the petition by Atiku and the PDP.
