PDP warns the Nigerian president Buhari, ahead of 2019 presidential election
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has warned President Muhammadu Buhari
and the All Progressives Congress (APC) not to “mistake the rigging in
Ekiti as acceptance by Nigerians”.
The party said it was “shameful for a President who claims to be an anti-corruption champion, to glee over acts of electoral corruption that can truncate our democratic process.”
In a statement by its spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, the opposition party said it found as strange that President Buhari could not “condemn the Mutilation of the will of Ekiti people and the stealing of another party’s victory by brute force.”
PDP noted the “unsavory statements by the Presidency, celebrating the invasion of Ekiti people as a stamp for President Buhari, wherein it further boasted of a triumph for the President in the 2019 general election.”
“Nigeria is too big and too complex to be subjugated by a single individual or group of individuals, as any attempt to do so will definitely consume the conspirators.
“Moreover, while we are still pursuing the recovery of our stolen mandate in Ekiti, we state in very strong terms that this will be the last time the PDP will, under any circumstance whatsoever, allow itself to be manipulated out at the polls at any level.
PDP urges all our members and supporters to remain calm over the daylight robbery that happened in Ekiti state, despite the provocations by the APC and the Presidency, as our leaders’ concert effort to ensure that justice is done.”
