Tribunal: Senator Manager Mocks Judgement, Says He Will Win Uduaghan 50 Times Over

Following the judgement of the which nullified the Delta South Senatorial election of February 2019, Senator James Manager whose 5th term victory suffered a set back by the decision of the election petition tribunal, has described the judgement as a miscarriage of justice, saying that the tribunal erred in all fronts.

His reaction to the judgement, published on his official Facebook Page, is reproduced below:

I have being studying the judgement of the Election Petition Tribunal with my legal team for Delta South Senatorial District which sat in Asaba today. I have also read the reaction from Dr. Emma Uduaghan (immediate past governor of delta state).

I want to firstly thank my dear people of delta south senatorial district for your show of solidarity, affection, goodwill and support at this time as always. I am in a small corner laughing and I remain unperturbed.

This judgement is certainly a miscarriage of justice and truly the tribunal erred in all fronts . We will definitely appeal the judgement. I want to urge my supporters to remain calm and patient for the outcome of our appeal for this is just a temporary setback.

Going forward, Dr. Emma Uduaghan is well aware that if the election is conducted 50 times I will emerge victorious.

Thank you and may Almighty God bless you all. We will triumph.
