The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Prince Uche Secondus has described INEC’s action of postponing the election has a deliberate plan.
The PDP chairman added that it is predetermined agenda of President Muhammadu Buhari to cling on to power even when it’s obvious to him that Nigerians want him out.
Prince Secondus said the action by INEC clearly exposes the commission as a failure and calls on the Chairman of the Commission, Prof Mahmood Yakubu to resign immediately.
“Having failed in all their nefarious options to enable them to cling on to power, the APC and the INEC came up with the idea of shifting election an action that is dangerous to our democracy and unacceptable”, he said.
The National Chairman said that the APC in connivance with the INEC have been trying all options including but not limited to burning down INEC offices in some states and destroying of electoral materials to create artificial problems upon which to stand for their dubious act.
“With several of their rigging options failing, they have to force INEC to agree to a shift in the election or a staggered election with flimsy excuses pre-manufactured for the purpose.
“For the avoidance of doubt the PDP sees this action as wicked and we are also aware of other dubious designs like the deployment of hooded security operatives who would be ruthless on the people ostensibly to scare them away.”
He said that by the action of the President has further demonstrated his insensitivity costing the huge cost after Nigerians including those who came home from abroad have all mobilized to their various constituencies.
The National Chairman recalls that the PDP had earlier alerted Nigerians that the APC was coming up with lined up rigging strategies which include the wicked killing of over 60 persons mostly women and children in Southern Kaduna.
The National Chairman also drew the attention of all lovers of democracy to the statement of President Buhari on the international media that nobody can unseat him from office as an indication of what he wants to do.
