APC Presidential primaries: The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has faulted the different figures recorded for President Muhammadu Buhari at the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential primaries held across the country, especially the results from some states in the North.
PDP while questioning how the APC arrived at such a huge figure in just a short period of time (in one day), called the figures fake, while also saying that the ruling party resulted to fake votes at the APC Presidential primaries after allegedly losing the hope of winning genuine votes
The PDP in their statement said:
APC resort to allocation of fake figures has shown that President Muhammadu Buhari and his failed and dysfunctional APC
have lost hope of winning genuine votes in the 2019 general election and want to rely on allocation of fake votes to attempt to rig the main election.
Nigerians will recall that the PDP had, in a statement on September 1, 2018, alerted of intelligence reports that the Presidency forced a direct presidential primary on the APC so as to “eliminate delegates accreditation and pave way for allocation of millions of conjured votes.
It is therefore, ludicrous that 29 days after our statement, the Presidency and the APC
staged a circus show, in their party’s state secretariats, in the name of Presidential primary and came up with fictitious figures as votes secured by the failed President Buhari.
What the failed and dysfunctional APC and the Muhammadu Presidency failed to note is that Nigerians are already aware that no ballot took place and that such figures cannot be tallied through mere voice vote involving few members of a derelict and disorganised party” the statement concludes.
The APC Presidential primaries held across the country, saw President Muhammadu Buhari winning a landslide victory in all the states, especially those controlled by APC Governors and this, the PDP are not comfortable with, going to the 2019 general elections.
