Former
Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has revealed that the
Peoples Democratic Party are now working with the Independent National
Electoral Commission to make sure the All Progressives Congress losses the
Lagos State 2015 elections.
Tinubu, who was speaking yesterday in Lagos, also berated
INEC for its conduct of the PVC distribution, saying…
“Just as we (APC) merged to form a formidable opposition
party, they have merged with Jonathan to form a formidable rigging machine.
“This exercise is a colossal failure. INEC has the responsibility to
give us a date when the exercise would start which they did. They were
the ones that picked the date. On the eve of the exercise, they announced they
could only carry out the exercise in 11 Local Government Areas out of the 20
recognised by the Federal Government.
“Rather than outright boycott, we endured the frustration and
appealed to the public to participate. Our field report and personal
experiences indicated that the exercise in those 11 LGAs failed and it is
unacceptable. In some instances, you didn’t find INEC and then in some, they
did not start on time.”
“You cannot automatically, without a court of law, disqualifythem, you can only suspend them and give them another opportunity to register.To me, this exercise has failed, it is not acceptable, and we consider it as arigging exercise. INEC has colluded with the presidency and the opposing partyto rig the election from the data to the end.”
