Adams Oshiomhole, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has assured his party supporters in Rivers State that the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) will weep on Saturday when President wins at the polls.
Oshiomhole, was speaking at the APC presidential campaign rally in Port Harcourt on Tuesday, where he urged party supporters to remain resolute even in their travails.
The supreme court on Tuesday sealed the fate of APC candidates apart from Buhari in the 2019 general election- Governorship, Senatorial, House of Representatives and House of Assembly.
Oshiomhole said: “The President was hurt that there is so much effort to award positions without attestations to the PDP.
“In Zamfara State, we are fighting to have the rights of our people to choose who they want; and here in Rivers State, that right seems to have been taken away.
“But our rights could be frozen; it cannot be detained forever.
“There is a saying that you don’t laugh at the crocodile until you are very certain that you have crossed the very last river.
“The PDP may be laughing too early, but they might weep in the end. On Saturday, you know what our task is and I don’t think I need to lecture you about that.”
Oshiomhole reiterated that the APC is committed to justice, fairness and democracy.
He said: “These are tempting moments when men of little hearts would give up as if this is the end of the world.
“Those who may be smiling that they will become what they do not deserve will find that, as they say, the downfall of a man is not the end of his life.
“And those who seem to laugh too early in the morning may end up crying much later in the night, because, in the world that we live in, there can be a huge gap between judgment and justice.”
Buhari urged the supporters to vote for APC after listing some of his achievements which he said includes, fight against corruption, infrastructural renewal and security of lives and property of Nigerians in crisis-prone parts of the country.
