NASS Election: PDP Did Well, APC Bungled – Lawyer Leo Aggrey
The outcome of the National Assembly elections still remains the most discussed topic among Nigerians across the country.
Some approve of the polls results, others call them unacceptable and illegal.
Speaking in Calabar, Cross River state, lawyer Leo Aggrey said that the emergence of two 7th Senate officers as leaders of the 8th Senate was a good development for Nigeria’s democracy.
The election of senators Ike Ekeweremadu and David Mark of the Peoples Democratic Party will make the Red Chamber more competitive, the lawyer believes.

Aggrey was quoted as saying by Vanguard:
“Wonderful work by the PDP in being effectively involved in the process. It is a very good omen for our democracy. The APC has bungled this situation.”
His colleague Remi Agwuezie described the incident as sensational in Nigeria’s history.
“It is a bombshell indeed. APC refused to learn from history and is paying dearly for it. The good thing is that the issue of godfatherism is gradually becoming a thing of the past. This is a hybrid change.”
Another respected lawyer, Professor Itse Sagay, said that President Muhammadu Buhari should reject the election outcome. He noted that the polls were conducted in violation of the specified procedure, which makes the results invalid.
