Former President Obasanjo Raises Another Alarm over Buhari's Misbehavior Like Abacha, and Plans To Rig 2019 Election

Cheif Olusegun Obasanjo

Nigeria's previous President Olusegun Obasanjo has blamed President Muhammadu Buhari for plotting to fix the 2019 race. Obasanjo issued the announcement at a Press Conference in Abeokuta prior today blaming for carrying on like late Sani Abacha.

Peruse the Full Statement Below:

I am worried as a democrat who trusts that with loyal and determined routine with regards to majority rule government, we can get over the vast majority of our political issues and move enduringly and surefootedly on the course of strength, solidarity of direction, financial development and advancement for all.

Popular government turns into a hoax if decisions are completed by individuals who ought to be unbiased and impartial umpires, however who demonstrate no trustworthiness, acting with barefaced favoritism, deception and stupidity. For all democrats and those completing the procedure of races, there must be the redline that must not be crossed in strategies and practices of majority rule government.

I for one have genuine uncertainty about the present INEC's uprightness, unbiasedness and skill to direct a reasonable, free and believable race. What's more, if the INEC is ready, will the decision gathering and government permit it? From what we saw and thought about Osun State gubernatorial decision, what was indisputable was pronounced uncertain in spite of all guidance in actuality.

The pointless rerun, whenever saw as a trial for a bigger general decision, would lead individuals to anticipate rates of intentionally devised, broken or non-working casting a ballot machines or card perusers, disarray of voters as to their casting a ballot stations, lacking supply of casting a ballot materials to assigned spots, long queue to debilitate voters and turning blind eyes to support the blue-eye political gathering of INEC on the grounds that the Commission's options will be limited to empower ax people to play out their unwholesome task.

The transmission and assemblage of results are liable to obstruction, control and intruding. On the off chance that the INEC's most loved political gathering wins with all the above infractions, the outcome will be indisputably announced and if not, there will be a 'rerun', the consequence of which is known before it is done. I realize that I am not the only one in being suspicious about the uprightness of INEC and its capacity to act respectably or more board. In any case, we are available to be persuaded something else.

The joke about INEC would appear to be genuine. The INEC was approached if the Commission was prepared for the decision and in the event that it anticipates that the race should be free, reasonable and solid. The INEC man is accounted for as saying accordingly, "we are prepared with everything including the outcomes!" God spare Nigeria! It is dependent upon Nigerians to guarantee that the redline isn't crossed in defending our juvenile vote based system. What's more, whenever crossed, proper move must be made not to enable our vote based system to be wrecked.

A companion of mine who is progressively gullible and who professes to be near the Chair of INEC continues revealing to me that INEC will recover its picture and notoriety by directing the coming races with most extreme respectability and unprejudiced nature. I don't know as I trust more in real life than in words and in past record than in guarantee. The reputation of the present INEC is genuinely corrupt and all people of altruism and professors in majority rules system must be set up for the most exceedingly terrible from INEC and their encouragers and how to get Nigeria out of the discretionary quagmire that the Commission is driving us into.

To be cautioned is to be forearmed. A fight since quite a while ago cautioned does not entangle the handicapped person nor get him unprepared. A word is adequate for the astute. The work of Nigerian majority rule government saints must not be futile. A few godly men would hold President Buhari to his pledge on free, reasonable, tenable and quiet decisions. I am a pragmatist and I emphasize that I pass by reputation. In this way, I am not convinced by a reputation of empty words, exemption, lack of care and 'I-proved unable consideration less' disposition, or by the unctuous cases of any hopeful and his battle staff. I will just accept what I see. This is a period for carefulness to battle to shield our votes and protect our popular government.

The cost of freedom and sustenance of our vote based system is everlasting carefulness and proper response to avoid evildoings. We should all be prepared to pay that cost and not depending on empty expressions of hardness. The crash of Nigerian popular government will be an amazing debacle similar to the fiasco of the Nigerian first military upset.

While Nigerians must not permit such a calamity to happen nor take such an attack keeping out of sight, the global network who assumed an excellent job in notice INEC, obviously, without much of any result on the Osun State gubernatorial decision and who host been cautioning every single political social affair should on this event give progressively genuine cautioning, send more individuals to the field to watch and work out reformatory measures against INEC and security authorities particularly the Police and legislators who remain to pick up from INEC's offense, which is clearly supported by the Executive Arm of Government and who must be considered in charge of the savagery that will pursue.

Such measures can fluctuate from disavowal and withdrawal of visas from the general population concerned and from their families to other progressively stringent measures including their records being solidified and taking them to International Criminal Court, ICC, if viciousness exudes from their activity or inaction. Nigeria must not be permitted to slip off the law based way nor go into turmoil and demolish. No individual nor bunch has restraining infrastructure of savagery or gangsterism. What's more, we should not overlook that in human cooperation, responses are ordinarily more prominent than activity, however inverse.

It is no utilization, at this crossroads, to continue mourning about the disappointment, ineptitude, disruptiveness, nepotism, consolation and approbation of defilement by Buhari organization as there is neither saving grace nor identity to rescue the circumstance inside that progressive system. You can't give what you don't have. Bode George put it obtusely in his announcement of December 3, 2018 when he stated:

"A day or two ago, the Vice-President of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo – a scholarly man, an edified individual in all parameters – was seen at different markets in Lagos State and Abuja circulating N10,000 each to advertise ladies. What a ludicrousness! It was to be sure a revolting showcase of official heedlessness and maltreatment of office. Ask, where did the cash originate from? Is it accurate to say that it was planned for in the allotment law? In increasingly edified countries, Osinbajo would have been indicted and arraigned for gutting our aggregate treasury."

What a demonstration by a Senior Advocate of Nigeria legal counselor, number 2 man in the Executive pecking order; and what is more, a minister of one of the Christian developments driven by a venerated, regarded and upstanding church pioneer, Pastor E. A. Adeboye. Osinbajo more likely than not gone for, "on the off chance that you can't beat them, go along with them". An incredible pity to be sure and which influences individuals to make the inquiries, "Any expectation?" Yes, for me, there is trust. Osinbajo has appeared human shortcoming and demonstrated the colloquialism that the defilement of the best is the most exceedingly terrible type of debasement. His clarification that it was their administration program must be interpreted to be extremely shallow and unbalanced, if not a totally moronic program.

Merchants in provincial and sub-urban zones of Nigeria are a lot more than those in urban zones and they are a lot poorer than dealers in Lagos, Abuja and different urban communities. They require more consideration and more noteworthy help. Is it accurate to say that they are to be limited to the store of never-ending destitution? What of the individuals who are not dealers? They are not qualified for distribute and they can mope in penury? Also, shouldn't something be said about millions who have lost their positions in the last three and a half years? The planning is likewise suspect. The individuals who condemn the activity are called underhanded however they are not shrewd as they recognize what they are doing and saying, and they cherish Nigeria and Nigerians at least any semblance of Osinbajo. They are not villains in bodily form; they are loyalists.

What is the association between taking the quantity of PVC (Permanent Voters Card) of the beneficiary of the N10,000 doled out to 'brokers' and the approaching decision? There is something evil about it, and Professor Osinbajo, surprisingly, should realize that. With plot of the INEC authorities and card perusers not made to work, anyone citing the PVC number might be permitted to cast a ballot as the reconsidered Electoral Bill was not marked. What's more, if that happens everywhere throughout the nation, it will be monstrous apparatus without a doubt. The Chairman of INEC must stand firm and do his obligations with capability and unyielding impartiality. Card perusers must be utilized as a matter of course and accreditation must be finished and number discovered and made open before casting a ballot initiates as was done in 2015.

Amina Zakari has turned out to be too questionable a figure to have the capacity to give affirmation of free, reasonable and tenable decision for INEC. President Buhari and her family have announced that there is no blood relationship however there is relationship through marriage and that is all that anyone could need for the great woman to move to one side. A judge does not sit in judgment over a case once the person in question turns into a reason for discussion or one side for the situation has unequivocally protested the judge. Madam Amina Zakari should, in respect, remain out and not be viewed as a wellspring of defilement of the decision. Else, it will be trouble to deny the talk that she is being relegated to Collation Center for one obligation just – to work out assumes that are not consequences of the casting a ballot in the field on phony outcomes sheets without water check or on veritable outcomes sheets which she will approach as a Commissioner. Amina Zakari isn't the main Commissioner that can be in the Collation Center. Give the INEC A chance to administrator act strikingly and fair-mindedly and demonstrate his outright lack of bias and responsiveness to add to make the race gently free, reasonable and dependable. His respectability should be straightforwardly illustrated.

We ought to recall that there had been reports of INEC sponsore.
