Senator ABE while reacting to a statement credited to the PDP said there was nothing new about going to the tribunal stressing that election petition tribunals are part of democratic process in Nigeria.
He expressed confidence that he and his party were set to meet the PDP at the tribunal to defend the mandate given to him by the people of Rivers South East.
The PDP yesterday announced that it has headed to the Election Petitions Tribunal to challenge the declaration of Senator MAGNUS ABE as winner of the just concluded re-run election in the Rivers South East Senatorial District by the Independent National Election Commission, INEC.
The party announced that the declaration of Abe as winner in the December 10, 2016, rerun election was a grave error as available records allegedly showed that the military, SARS personnel, and other security agencies massively rigged the election in the whole of the Rivers South East Senatorial District in favour of ABE.
