The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party
in the 2019 elections, Atiku Abubakar, says anti-democratic forces are at work.
He, therefore, called on the Independent National Electoral
Commission to act in defence of democracy.
Atiku said this as controversies trail the governorship and
state house of Assembly election in six states.
While INEC stopped the announcement of election results in
Rivers due to the violence that engulfed the state, the Commission has also
controversially paused the announcement of the governorship election in Kano
State, where PDP appears to be leading.
INEC has also declared as inconclusive, the outcome of the
elections in Bauchi, Benue, Adamawa, Plateau and Sokoto states.
The PDP is leading in all the affected states except in
Plateau State where the sitting governor, Simon Lalong, is leading.
Taking to his verified Twitter handle @atiku, Atiku had
tweeted:
Anti-democratic forces are at work. My counsel to the
Independent National Electoral Commission is as follows:
Conclude on the side of democracy.
Conclude on the side of the people.
Conclude on the side of the constitution.
Conclude on the side of Nigeria. -AA.
