PDP You Have Failed, Get Ready To Pack and Go – Buhari
The presidential candidate of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), General
Muhammadu Buhari has said that no amount of
sentiment would make the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) continue in power after this
weekend’s presidential election.
Buhari stated this during his town hall meeting
with political leaders, traditional rulers and
religious leaders in Imo State. He maintained
that the PDP has thrown the country into
turmoil, noting that the urge to vote the party
out is not based on religion but patriotism by
the people who are yearning for change.
He said, “We are in trouble in this country; PDP
cannot help us; let us vote them out; it is not
about religion but patriotism; PDP has
completely failed us. If you leave them for 20
years, they will still not perform.
“Nigeria is being ridiculed all over the world
because of their bad governance;
Igbo people know this because they are mobile
all over the world; APC represents freedom of
security and integrity; they know this; so, no
amount of sentiment will bring PDP back to
power.”
He stressed that after 16 years, instead of the
economy of the country to thrive, it becomes
worse by the day as a result of bad governance
by the PDP, listing the dwindling oil sector and
the devaluation of the naira as some of the
shameful governance style of the party.
Okorocha Raises Alarm Over Alleged Plans By
PDP To Rig Election With Security Chiefs
Imo State governor Rochas Okorocha has raised
the alarm over alleged plans to rig the
forthcoming presidential and other elections in
the state by the PDP using security chiefs to
perfect their plan.
Okorocha, who raised the alarm during the town
hall meeting of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari with
some stakeholders in Imo State, further alleged
that the present transfer of the security chiefs in
the state such as the state commissioner of
police, AbdulMajid Ali, and other key officers that
will be involved in the conduct of the election to
other states justifies their rigging plans.
“PDP has transferred the state commissioner of
police to another state; they have also
transferred the former resident electoral
commissioner and brought their brother from
Cross River State; the state NYSC director has
also been transferred and they brought
somebody from Cross River; this is their plan to
rig the election but I have declared myself the
people’s General; nobody shall rig the election.”
