*Says Nigeria sliding back to dictatorship
The Peoples Democratic Party on Sunday said the conduct and
outcome of the November 16 governorship elections in Kogi and
Bayelsa States have destroyed the hope Nigerians had in democratic
practice.
The party stated that Nigerians and the entire world watched in
horror as the All Progressives Congress-led government trampled the
nation’s democracy under foot with an utmost impunity that can only
be obtainable in Hitler’s Germany and Samuel Doe’s Liberia, where
the lives and rights of citizens meant nothing to suppressive power
mongers.
The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Kola Ologbondiyan, in
a statement also said citizens agonised as APC-controlled security
forces allegedly aided armed hoodlums to invade polling centres,
shoot and kill innocent citizens.
He also alleged that the thugs also carted ballot boxes, stuffed
them with already thumbprinted ballot papers allegedly in favour of
APC.
He further alleged that, after the results were allegedly
allocated to the APC and handed over to an alleged compromised
Independent National Electoral Commission to announce against the
will of the people.
