The All Progressives Congress said on Thursday that it had uncovered the Peoples Democratic Party’s manual for rigging the Saturday’s governorship election in Osun State.
National Chairman of the party, Chief John Oyegun, said the manual contained PDP’s “projected fake results in all the 30 local government areas of the state.”
Oyegun said in the statement that he had at a press conference in Osogbo on Thursday, disclosed that the rigging plans were contained in two documents prepared by the PDP .
He said the the documents are now in the possession of the APC.
He therefore called on the new Inspector-General of Police and other security agents to show to Nigerians that they are truly professional men and women of honour.
The party also urged all Nigerians, particularly the voters in Osun to be “extra vigilant and ensure that their will is not subverted by this on-rushing brigade of evil”.
He added, “The first is a ‘secret’ document marked ‘highly confidential’ that contains a meticulous outline of plans to rig the election, polling unit by polling unit, using pre-programmed ballot papers already designed and thumb printed with vanishing ink in favor of PDP.
“The second document, entitled ‘Task Force: Operation (PDP) takeover of Osun’, lists the actions to be taken at most of the 30 local government areas in the state, including thuggery, snatching of ballot boxes and instigation of violent clashes, the PDP members to coordinate the recommended actions and the APC members to be arrested to pave the way for such actions.
“The ‘secret’ document further contains the plan to deploy specified numbers of impression ballot papers and vanishing ink in 1,195 polling units across 155 wards in all Local Government Areas of Osun State, in addition to a plan to de-register 47,000 voters, whose Voters Identification Numbers have been illegally acquired so they won’t find their names on the voters register on election day.
“The document also contains the number of pre-allotted votes for each local government to make up the number of 406,116, which the PDP has pre-allotted to itself even before the commencement of voting!”
APC said the PDP had allotted figures to itself as follows: “Atakumosa East (10,000); Atakumosa West (10,000), Ayedaade (15,000), Ayedire (10,000), Boluwaduro (5,000); Boripe (10,000); Ede North (10,130); Ede South (10,000); Egbedore (10,000); Ejigbo (15,000); Ife Central (35,000); Ifedayo (7,000); Ife East (33,018); Ifelodun (15,000) and Ife North (20,000).
“Others are: Ife South (20,000); Ila (10,000); Ilesa East (10,000); Ilesa West (10,340); Irepodun (10,007); Irewole (20,105); Isokan (10,000); Iwo (15,000); Obokun (10,203); Odo-Otin (10,107); Ola-Oluwa (5,070); Olorunda (15,000); Oriade (10,000); Orolu (7,936 and Osogbo (28,000).”
The party said the elaborate and audacious plan is to be carried out in connivance with key INEC officials from the National headquarters, and those deployed from other states, with the staunch backing of all security agencies deployed for the election, with particularly-mobilised personnel, former militants and masked thugs impersonating security officials under a combined team code named ‘Election Task Force’”
The statement added, “The outlined rigging plans explain why the PDP has been boasting repeatedly that it would capture Osun, having successfully executed similar plans in Delta Senatorial, Anambra governorship and Ekiti governorship elections.
“All these point to the fact that PDP’s devilish plans to destroy our nascent democracy would stop at nothing to achieve its aim. We hereby put all stakeholders on red alert. We call on Prof. Attahiru Jega to ensure that his name does not go down in infamy as some others have.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

ReplyDeleteapc wit their propagander pdp do pdp no do.na waoooo!
ReplyDeleteIt's so SAD that Chief John Oyegun of all people is the one promoting LIES. How can you be saying all these lies about PDP when in fact it's your party APC chieftain Otunba Tunde Badmus that has been caught & arrested with 50,000 already thumb printed ballot papers at his Oshogbo Farm Resort. He is currently being whisked away to Abuja by SSS operatives.
ReplyDeleteI suggest our plans should focus on d two deadly gentlemen presently in our country. They fear no body, if u dare them. No security agent can stand them, not even Doctors. They are Boko Haram n Ebola which of recent, joined his brother BH. D former based in d North while his bros is operating in d south. It's time we reap wht we planted. It's our bad behaviors dat brought d anger of GOD upon us. See Det. 28 : 21-24. Iorjor Victor - Makurdi
ReplyDeleteYou are full for all your comment's,did you want to Nigeria to one party system?their should an opposition for check and balance.
ReplyDeleteand some people are telling me this people wl win 2015 with all this nonsense the general public has now tired of this there lies
ReplyDeleteAPC is full of noise making kids and cheap liars.
ReplyDeleteBible said it, My people are perishing Because of ................................., PDP do that and APC do that, Just remember EBULA about to crush two of you......this virus is not only for poor people and remember no country will allow to fly Your infected body to their country no.matter How much or important you are........
ReplyDeleteA strong & vibrant opposition is the beauty of Democracy. We had hopes during the formation of APC. But that hope has been long dashed. Those that form & fund APC are worse than those in PDP with the level of utterances emanating from them daily. It's only a fool that would believe they have something better to offer.
ReplyDeleteAPC with their propaganda again Cannt this party be serious for once. This is very rediclouse I can imaging the calibre of people they will produce if voted into power ,the likes of boko haram .God forbid.
ReplyDeleteIf u have been having one party leading the nation for almost 2 decades and no improvement,why not try other party if u are wise.Osun state , for example is very wise in decision making.They gave PDP Opportunity to lead them but when they noticed continous underdevelopment,they changed and now things are better.Let us practise same for Nigeria in 2015 presidential electtion.
ReplyDeleteWe all Nigerians whether PDP or APC. PDP had over- stayed the stage and hence has nothing to use again for campaign but APC can use their weakness for campaign. That is the beauty of democracy. Only in Nigeria people talk just on sentiment instead of truth. The Americans even some states in Nigeria like Kano doesnt give any party more than eight years, they will vote the party out. Because APC may likely give north presidency seat people are ranting sentiment, they have forgoten that PDP is still a northern formed party. If they say no to PDP today and yes to APC, the former is dead and the later carrys on but as far as it is the same people they are all ebola to our economy and progress.
ReplyDeletewhat is the meaning of this nonsense noise APC is making all over, why are they full of fear all over them, if they are indeed good citizen of Nigerians' and they have something to offer the country, they should put fear aside and face reality dot come
ReplyDeleteAPC have already conceded defeat from the their statements. Mr. APCs, please can you concentrate on telling Nigerians what your party will do for them than criticizing PDP? Haba...haba APC be reasonable.. Electtions are not won with such trick...Lying, blackmail, destructive criticism, etc but on well articulated manifestos....
