The All Progressives Congress (APC) has asserted that the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) is bound to face a “spectacular and ignominious defeat” in the ongoing battle at the Supreme Court between the APC, PDP, and the Labour party, concerning Bola Tinubu’s declaration as winner of the February 25 election.

The party said PDP must be thoroughly deluded to imagine that it can get through the court what it deservedly failed to get through the polls.

Earlier, the PDP had in a statement released through its National Publicity Secretary, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, ahead of the hearing of the presidential election petition appeal, expressed optimism and confidence in emerging victorious as they believed that the Supreme Court would fully deliver justice on the matter being “…guided by the provisions of the law, the body of evidence, circumstances and facts presented before it.”
The PDP also expressed hope in the Supreme Court using the “Case to firmly validate the maxim that the judiciary is the last hope of the common man” in order, to meet the earnest expectation of Nigerians and lovers of democracy all over the world who are also optimistic that the Supreme Court would dispense great justice through the application of the law in the matter.

Apparently reacting to PDP’s statement prior to the Supreme Court sitting on Monday, the APC in a statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, said that the PDP was hallucinating for expressing confidence in their candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, emerging victorious in his appeal at the Supreme Court.
