Yul Edochie, Governorship Candidate of Democratic Peoples Congress (DPC) in 2017 Anambra gubernatorial election, has reacted to the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal verdict between President Muhammadu Buhari of APC and Atiku Abubakar of PDP.
Buhari had yesterday, defeated the Presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar, who dragged him to court challenging President Buhari’s qualification to contest for the election.
The Tribunal in their rulings, stated that there was no law that disqualified President Buhari from contesting the 2019 elections.
Reacting, Mr. Edochie, a Nollywood actor, recalled how he gathered “all his certificates up to University degree and attach them to the form he submitted to INEC”, in bid to contest for the 2017 Anambra state governorship election.
“When I ran for Governor I had to gather all my certificates up to my University degree and attach them to my form.
Now you people are telling me I don’t even need those certificates to be President???
The highest office in the country?
“Chai! Nigerian judiciary diaris God oo!
