The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Tonye Cole has lauded the judgement of the Appeal Court, ordering stay of execution of a Federal High Court judgement barring APC from the general elections in Rivers State.

Cole, on his verified Twitter handle shared a photo of himself with a fistbump, as a sign of victory and tweeted, “I thank God almighty for his faithfulness. I sincerely appreciate the Court of Appeal for their credible judgement, I am grateful to APC for their steadfastness and I thank the people of Rivers state for their unwavering belief.”

An Appeal Court sitting in Port Harcourt presided over by Mohammed Mustapha stated that all parties affected by Justice Omotosho’s judgement have appealed it; therefore, it will be unjust not to grant the application to stay execution of the ruling.
