The Peoples Democratic Party has restated its call for the postponement of the Ondo governorship election scheduled for Saturday, to enable it to“screen and select agents for the exercise”.
Mr. Makarfi told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), in Jos on Thursday.
Chairman of the party’s national caretaker committee, Ahmed Makarfi described the judgment as a “massive step forward”, but argued that the party deserved “a little more time to select its agents in the interest of fair play”.
Mr. Makarfi urged INEC to consider the party’s request in view of the protracted battle that had trailed the party’s candidacy.
The Court of Appeal, on Wednesday in Abuja, dropped the party’s candidate, Jimoh Ibrahim, and replaced him with Eyitayo Jegede, who was the flag bearer before being substitued.
