Senator Lawan, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who was reacting to the Supreme Court ruling which affirmed former Kaduna State Governor, Ahmed Makarfi as the national chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), said that the ruling by the apex court was an indication that the President Muhammadu Buhari’s government believed in separation of powers.
Senator Lawan said that in spite of the ruling, the former ruling party will continue to remain in “Diaspora,” adding: “Nigerians overwhelmingly and massively took out PDP from the running of this country and PDP will remain in Diaspora. All the same.
“We want to congratulate Nigerians for the kind of judgment that the Supreme Court gave under this administration.
“During PDP administration, most of the court judgments were written in the villa. This goes to show that this administration believes in separation of powers and believes that our judiciary should remain and continue to be free in what they do.” [myad]
