PDP Raise The Alarm Over APC Plot Bulkachuwa To Influence Ekiti, Osun Tribunals

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has accused the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) of plotting to use the husband of the President of the Court of Appeal, Justice Zainab Adamu Bulkachuwa, to influence the tribunals in Ekiti and Osun states which were constituted by her.

According to a statement by the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the party, Prince Diran Odeyemi, in Osogbo, the recent ‘gift’ of the APC Bauchi North Senatorial ticket to Adamu Bulkachuwa, the husband of Justice Bulkachuwa, after he lost the primaries to Usman Abubakar Tuggar, was a pointer to that direction.

Usman Tuggar won APC senatorial primaries in six of the seven local government areas of Bauchi North, but the party was substituted to Mohammed Bulkachuwa who narrowly won only one local government (Katagum) by 7,263 votes to 6,278 to influence the tribunals in Ekiti and Osun state.

In total, Mr. Tuggar scored 71,508 votes while Mr. Bulkachuwa scored 16,680 votes.

However, the APC in a statement by its Director of Publicity, Research and Strategy, Kunle Oyatomi, said the fact that the Appeal Court President is not sitting on the matter has destroyed PDP’s argument.
