Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation has called on the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari(retd.), to call his supporters to order and ensure a violence-free election.
Director of Media and Publicity of the Organisation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, made the call in a statement issued on Sunday in Abuja against the backdrop of the violence, arson and destruction unleashed on President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign buses at Zololo Junction along Bauchi road in Jos North Local Government Area of Plateau State on Saturday.
Fani-Kayode warned Buhari and the APC not to prepare the ground for the re-enactment of the post-election violence of 2011.
According to him, “It is on record that General Buhari’s utterances since 2011 have fuelled violence especially the post-election violence in parts of the north which claimed the lives of many youth corps members who were deployed as ad-hoc staff members for that year’s election.
“It is sad that up till now General Buhari has refused to apologize to the Nigerian people for that barbaric and shameful incident or show any remorse for the actions of his supporters. He could not even bring himself to tender an apology to the families of those young corps members that were hacked to death and murdered in cold blood by his agents.
“As if that was not enough tragedy unleashed on the polity, General Buhari recently said that the ‘baboon and the dog would be soaked in blood if what happened in 2011 repeat itself in 2015.’
“The Jos attack on the campaign buses of President Goodluck Jonathan would appear to be a pointer to what the opposition APC presidential candidate is planning before and after the February 14 presidential election.
“We therefore call on well-meaning Nigerians and members of the international community to speak forcefully against this development, which threatens our elections and democracy and which falls way below the standard of best international practices,” Fani-Kayode added.

FFK please dont misinform us, those youths who burnt the buses did that to resist GOV. Jang from imposing his candidate on us, u better search inside ur party very well because those boys are PDP youths. Mr Governor should pls consider us in plateau and let the will of his party members be done so that we can have peace at least for once in Jos, then as for u FFK pls mind ur business dont ever speak of Jos better go back to ur state or region where u are fond of pushing people to his grave

Buhari has been campaigning about both in south south and south East and we have not heard of anyone fighting or trying to bomb him even though we don't want him, just because we are civilized humans! And you guys say I should vote for these group of animals?? pleaseeeeeeee
