Following
her loss at the Supreme Court, Senator Aisha Jumai Alhassan released a statement saying that only "true and deserving winners"
deserved to be congratulated not Governor Ishaku Darius.
"I have heard that some people have said that I will not continue as a politician and that I am worried" the statement reads.
"Why should I be worried? If President Buhari contested 3 times and
became the President after the 4th contest. Not because he lost the
first three, but because the fourth time was God's time.
"Why
wouldn't I continue? I didn't get it this time because it is not God's
time, because everybody knows I won the election, even PDP people in
Taraba State.
PDP people know I
won the election because they know the manipulation they did in the
government lodge Wukari, where they added over 50, 000 votes for Darius.
"They also know they manipulation they did in Donga and Kurmi LGA's
where they manipulated and also added about 50, 000 votes together for
Darius.
Therefore, I am not angry with anybody, instead I thank
God for giving me good health and strength to contests and win the over
270,000 votes I got in the election. Clean real votes, not manipulated
like the PDP votes.
I say all this without fear of contradiction
because PDP people know this. So we will all watch as this government
which has little or no understanding of the plight and needs of the
people of Taraba, let alone know solutions for them.
"I don't know
why people worry about me not congratulating Darius. I did not because
you only congratulate true and deserving winners. He knows that he did
not win. Therefore, he is not deserving of my congratulations.
"Once again I seize this opportunity to thank my supporters and urge
them to remain steadfast and continue believing in God and start getting
ready for the next round. I pray God grants us all long life and good health to fight next round"
