A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party and former Senator, Ben Murray-Bruce, has appealed to the presidential candidate of the PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar to end all battles against President Bola Tinubu.

Reacting to the judgement of the Supreme Court which ruled in favour of Tinubu, Murray-Bruce advised Atiku that the judgment should be accepted by all Nigerians as settling all the issues of contention and the matter of who won the Presidential election held on February 25, 2023.

“Therefore, I call on the Peoples Democratic Party and its Presidential candidate, Waziri Atiku Abubakar, to accept the judgment and let this controversy end,” he said just as he congratulated Tinubu.

The former senator from Bayelsa state said it is time to focus on the task of building Nigeria and growing her economy.

He said this would enable it to deliver a decent living and opportunities for positive human development for all Nigerians, especially the masses.

In his message to the PDP, he said members should learn from the disunity that cost the party the election.

“If a united opposition could not defeat the ruling All Progressives Congress in 2019, we showed an extreme lack of judgment to have allowed division within our ranks in 2022-2023.

“Hopefully, we can make better decisions for the future. May God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
