Hon. Rimamnde Shawulu Kwewum, a member of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), has expressed optimism that his victory which the All Progressives Congress (APC), tried to steal would be recovered.
Kwewum, a two term member of the House of Representatives for Donga/Takum/ Ussa and Yangtu federal constituency of Taraba state, is challenging the declaration of Mark Bako candidate of the APC, as winner of the February 25, 2023, National Assembly Election.
 

Speaking in an interview with journalists on Thursday shortly after the sitting of the National Assembly Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Jalingo, the Taraba state capital, Kwewum urged the people of the constituency to take heart and have faith in the court.
 

He said he was confident that the justices are honourable men who will do the right thing.
“I am very comfortable, I believe that the justices, honourable men as the are, will do what is right.The people in my constituency should take heart.
 

“The victory that the APC tried to steal will be restored and we would continue the good work of ensuring that all shades of opinions and all peoples in the federal constituency are represented in ways that had not been done before as it can be testified from what we did from 2015 to 2023”, he said.
