The Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) has asked Prince Charles to caution President Muhammadu Buhari against
rigging the 2019 elections.
Charles and his wife, duchess of
Cornwall, arrived Nigeria for a three-day visit on Tuesday.
They were received by Buhari at
the presidential villa, Abuja.
Kola Ologbondiyan, national
publicity secretary of the PDP, called on the prince of Wales to prevail on the
president “on the continued violation of human rights, siege on democratic
institutions, political intolerance and stifling of opposition and free speech
in the country under his administration.
“We also call on Prince Charles
to take President Buhari to task on his administration’s cavernous corruption,
disobedience to court orders, as well as its divisive proclivities, aloofness
and insensitivity to the plight of Nigerians leading to escalation of violence,
etc.
“Furthermore, we urge the British
leader to counsel President Buhari not to attempt to rig the 2019 Presidential
election but be ready to accept his imminent defeat in the polls, since it is
clear that Nigerians have rejected him because of his incompetence and
ineptitude.
“The British leader is invited to
note that the Buhari administration has reversed all the political and social
gains made by Nigeria since independence while pushing the nation to the brinks
with its anti-democratic tendencies and desperation to hang on to power beyond
2019.”
