PDP planning to announce fake results – APC Alleges | Nairalaw

WE CALL FOR THE IMMEDIATE ARREST OF ALHAJI BUBA GALADIMA
AS PDP AND ATIKU’S CAMPAIGN PERFECT PLANS TO RELEASE FAKE
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION RESULTS AHEAD OF INEC; PLANS TO MOBILISE
HOODLUMS FOR CHOREOGRAPHED PROTESTS

Devastated by authentic results filtering out of polling units
nationwide, our usual sources within the camp of the PDP have
informed us that an emergency meeting of the main opposition party
has been summoned for today somewhere in Abuja.

Top on the agenda of the PDP is to activate the last strand of
their Dubai strategies that have since collapsed like a pack of
cards: they plan to release fake results of the Presidential
Election later today or early Monday morning that they claim to
have compiled themselves.

Our information is that they aim to create crises and confusion
that will lead to Alhaji Atiku Abubakar claiming victory in a day
or two from today ahead of the official announcement of the results
by INEC. Then, what would follow will be some carefully
choreographed protests by pockets of hoodlums in some parts of the
country. The ultimate aim is to curry the sympathy of our foreign
friends and push us to the Venezuela situation.

Our call is therefore to INEC, NIGERIA BROADCASTING COMMISSION
and all law-enforcement agencies to continually warn the PDP and
all their surrogates like the amorphous CUPP and their likes that
anyone who flouts the law on announcement of official results will
be made to face the law. Opposition does not confer immunity on
anyone to flout the law.

In preparation for this reckless move, some PDP social media
agents are already flying some kites on-line as to the number of
States allegedly ‘won’ by PDP. In fact, Alhaji Buba Galadima, an
official spokesperson for Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has made a short
video announcing PDP as the ‘winner’ of the Presidential Election.
As an official spokesperson, he is clearly acting on behalf of
Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and on his instruction. We, therefore call
for the immediate arrest, interrogation and prosecution of Alhaji
Buba Galadima in this regard. The world is watching and waiting on
Alhaji Atiku Abubakar to say something on the video by Alhaji Buba
Galadima.

Consequently, we urge all well-meaning Nigerians, the
International Community and even reasonable members of the
Opposition not to be bought by these cheap antics of the PDP. Let’s
restrain our wards from being used by these unscrupulous elements.
Nigeria will continue to exist after this election.

Over the years, the PDP had been declared ‘winner’ of
Presidential elections under controversial circumstances. On those
occasions, President Muhammadu Buhari never took laws into his
hands and declared himself President. He also never declared
parallel results. He availed himself of constitutional means to
address his grievance by approaching the law courts.

Their latest devilish plot against the country is a clear
indication that their apology to the Nigerian people was just a
hoax. They have learnt nothing and they have forgotten nothing as
they just cannot win any election fair and square.

Thank you.
