Jonathan planning to scuttle March 28 elections –Buhari Vanguard


The Buhari Vanguard, Tuesday, raised the alarm that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was planning to disrupt the rescheduled general elections.

The group warned that such attempt will crumble the nation’s democracy.

BV in a statement by its chairman, Jasper Azuatalam, claimed the PDP and President Goodluck Jonathan have been doing everything within their reach to halt the election.

“They employed about 500 young people with an NGO called Soitress under “Forward Nigeria” at the office of the daughters of Abraham Foundation, along Kado Mabuchi express way in FCT to execute the job,” Buhari Vanguard said.

“We have received verifiable and confirmed information that over 70% of those called by the organization in Nasarawa, Benue, Kwara, and Kogi insisted that they will vote for the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Gen Muhammadu Buhari amidst the persuasions by the callers to vote for the nominee of the Peoples Democratic Party, Goodluck Jonathan.”

The group said the moves by the PDP were attempts to stop Gen Muhammadu Buhari from being the president of the of Nigeria on May 29, 2015.

Buhari Vanguard claimed that the Jonathan decided to reschedule the February elections when it became clear that he was going to lose, adding that even online polls conducted by media houses and other independent organizations did not favour him.

“We fear because, if the witch cried in the night and the baby died in the morning, another cry of the witch the following night will leave the mother in a sleepless night.

“At this point when there is no more room in the constitution to postpone the election, we fear that any attempt to reschedule the 2015 election will lead to the collapse of our nascent democracy,” the group warned
