Former deputy spokesman of the
All Progressives Congress, APC, Timi Frank, has challenged President Muhammadu
Buhari and his campaign Director-General, Rotimi Amaechi, to tell Nigerians why
people are dying during their party’s rallies.
He made the call while referring
to the loss of lives at APC presidential rally in Rivers state.
In a statement, he signed and titled: “Buhari, Amaechi: Explain why people are dying
at APC rallies,” Frank alleged that the killings may be for “rituals by the APC
leaders.”
While paying condolences to the
family of those who have lost their lives in APC rallies across the country,
the former APC spokesperson urged Nigerians to be sensitive by avoiding
gathering of APC leaders, receiving money or materials from “bloodsucking
party.
He said: “If not for rituals, the
number of deaths recorded so far at APC rallies are enormous. How come no
single death has been recorded in PDP rally that had more crowd? Our spiritual
leaders must unravel what is killing people at APC rallies.
“I call on Nigerians to stop
collecting campaign materials like T-shirt, face cap, Tradermoni and so on from
APC leaders. This is a party that has brought pain and anguish to Nigeria.
Since APC took over in 2015, blood has been flowing as if it is normal.
Hundreds have been lost to farmer/herders crisis in Benue, Plateau and Taraba
states, bandits killed more in Kaduna and Zamfara, Boko Haram and other killers
gained more ground and now Nigerians are still dying at common campaign rallies
of APC.
“These and many more have shown
that the hands of APC leaders are not clean. We must reject them through our
votes, we must stand by and protect our votes.
Frank also accused the Chairman
of Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Prof. Yakubu Mahmud of
having prior knowledge of burnt materials and offices in some strongholds of
the PDP across the country to reduce its votes.
Frank insisted that the INEC boss
cannot be exonerated from the plot to reduce votes at areas identified as PDP
strongholds.
“The burning at INEC offices is
part of the strategies agreed upon at a midnight meeting Prof. Yakubu held with
the president at Defence house recently. Strange things already happening but
it is clear that the whole world is watching.
“I will warn the INEC leadership
to desist from carrying out evil agenda and template prepared to rig the
forthcoming election because if anything contrary happens against the will of
the people, the INEC boss will be held responsible,” Frank stated.
The Bayelsa born activist also
condemned a media report credited to the INEC boss where he warned foreign
observers to only “observe and not monitor.
“I’m using this medium to call on
international community to hold the INEC boss responsible if anything happens
against the will of the people,” he said.
