They played on that narrative so strongly that if anything had happened, they would have said, Ah, that there was something I did wrong. They went to channels. They went to arise, they went to AIT,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey went to all the stations to create a narrative that there was something wrong in the clear judgment that was passed by the Court of Appeal, a clear judgment, and the behind, they started pushing for my being recognized by INEC to be stayed by the court, and also for them to be given leave to go to the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnyone can go to the Supreme Court, if they are not happy with the judgment, go to Supreme Court, but because you\u2019ve lost at the lower court and at the Court of Appeal, then you should really go for a subset of a leave which is their own fundamental right.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut them, coming to say they want to stay the judgment that the Court of Appeal gave because I did something fraudulent that there were some facts I did not disclose&#8230;was highly, highly fraudulent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey are not saying anything. We\u2019ve gone to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court has been clear. The lower court, which has the right to enforce, has enforced. It has moved up to the Court of Appeal. The Court of Appeal has affirmed the enforcement of the lower courts, and they are still going around, causing tension everywhere, trying to send our party backwards.<\/p>\n<p>The governor is putting so much energy for my recognition in INEC to be removed, but my removal from INEC is not possible because it\u2019s based on the law.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s based on facts. It\u2019s based on the fact that I won the convention in Owerri. So before you are able to remove me from INEC, you must disprove the fact that I was a chairman elected in the Owerri convention.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey did so much to remove me but through the grace of God, and knowing that the fact is, on our side, it is impossible for them to remove me as National Chairman.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About Nigeria Follow Africa-Press<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
