The representative of Rivers Southeast Senatorial
District, Senator Magnus Abe, has described
his Monday evening’s favourable judgment at the
election petitions tribunal in Abuja as victory for
all Rivers people.
He also lauded the judiciary on the landmark
judgement, in a petition filed by Olaka Worgu of
the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Abe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress
(APC), while reacting to the judgement of the
tribunal, presided over by Justice Goody Anunihu,
he lauded the people of Rivers Southeast
senatorial district for the massive support.
The senator, in an online statement Tuesday by
his Spokesperson, Parry Benson, urged Worgu
and his supporters to join hands with him to
move the senatorial district and Rivers state
forward.
Abe, a former Secretary to the Rivers State
Government (SSG), stated that what should be of
paramount concern to every person from the
senatorial district was the dividends of
democracy, while assuring them that very soon
they would benefit immensely for voting for him.
He gave an assurance that he would not
discriminate against anyone, stressing that it did
not matter whether anybody from the senatorial
district did not vote for him.
The senator enjoined the people of the district,
no matter the political party they belong, to
support him, in order to enable him to get all the
benefits due them.
He said: “I want to congratulate the judiciary and
all Rivers people. This is a victory for all of us
and all those who believe in democracy and due
process.
“At this point, l will like to plead with everybody
that it is time to let go of this quagmire and give
the people of our senatorial district the
opportunity to benefit from the dividends of
democracy.
“I thank all those who voted for me and all those
who did not vote for me. I thank God Almighty
who has made all things possible.”
Abe assured that he would put in his best in the
service of the people of his senatorial district,
Rivers state and Nigeria.
