Push APC into Atlantic Ocean, Agbaje tells Igbo

The Peoples Democratic Party
governorship candidate in Lagos
State, Mr. Jimi Agbaje, has urged
Igbo across the state to push the All
Progressives Congress ‘into the
lagoon’ by voting for him on
Saturday.
Agbaje said this while addressing
Igbo traders at the Alaba
International Market on Thursday.
The PDP candidate urged them to
ignore the threats made by the Oba
of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, that if they
do not vote for the APC
governorship candidate on
Saturday, they would die in the
lagoon.
“Nobody can push you into the
Atlantic Ocean. Rather, you should
use your votes to push the APC into
the Atlantic Ocean by voting
massively for the PDP on Saturday,”
Agbaje said.
He urged the people to ignore the
scare tactics being marshalled by
the APC, saying, it was the antics of
a drowning party.
Agbaje said, “Election is like a
snake. You have to make sure you
win by killing the snake completely
by using your votes to drive the APC
out of power. The reason why they
are harassing you is because they
fear Igbo votes. They will try to do
‘shakara’ for you but you must vote
massively for the PDP and protect
your votes.”
Agbaje, who was accompanied by
his running mate, Alhaja Safuratu
Abdulkarim; and the Minister of
State for Foreign Affairs, Senator
Musiliu Obanikoro, said the APC had
become arrogant because the party
had been in power for too long.
He said, “In the last 16 years, the
APC has been full of arrogance. This
arrogance must end once and for
all. Saturday is the time to say
enough is enough.”
Counselling the audience to
eschew violence and refuse to be
intimidated at the polling venue,
Agbaje urged them to guard their
votes.
He said, “God is on our side and
power will change hands on
Saturday and life will be better for
you and your businesses. There will
be no oppression again because
this election is about freedom from
bondage.”

We will sEe that will happen

INEC Rejects Governor T. A. Orji As Senator-
Elect
Umuahia,the Abia State capital,was agog on
Monday evening following information that
the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) has rejected the result
being paraded by the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) as being that of Abia Central
District.
Daily Sun gathered that Gov Theodore Orji
was roundly beaten at the poll including in
his polling unit,ward and local government
by the candidate of the All Progressives
Grand Alliance (APGA), Chief Ahamdi
Emmanuel Nweke, but that
PDP in connivance some Independent
National Electoral (INEC) officials allegedly
manipulated the result in favour of the
governor.
It was also gathered that following
complaints lodged at the INEC
headquarters,Ab uja,a three-man committee
was set up to look into the
allegation of result manipulation.
“Although the committee’s report has not
been made public,but a source revealed the
APGA candidate won the election and
members are taking their findings back to
the INEC headquarters.
When news of the development filtered into
town,the capital city went agog with
residents saying that at last,the man they
voted for,would represent them in the
Senate.
A prominent Umuahia chief, who hails from
the same area with Gov Orji, was said to
have held an elaborate party to celebrate the
development.
Addressing newsmen,Chief Nweke said
there was no time he had doubt about his
ability to defeat Gov Orji at the poll, stating
that his non-performance in office made
victory easier for him.
Nweke said it was not only that he defeated
Orji,but that he beat him at his (governor’s)
polling unit,which,acco rding to him,meant
his kinsmen rejected him and that he also
defeated the governor at the wife’s polling
unit.
He said: “If I could beat the governor at his
polling unit and that of his wife, all in
Umuahia,which means total rejection by his
kinsmen,where else could he get the votes
that will make him to defeat me? Could it be
from my own ward and local government?
It’s impossible.
“How could people have voted for APGA and
they are writing a different result? That’s
why I like what INEC at the headquarters is
doing; it will restore people’s confidence in
the system.
“T.A Orji should emulate President Goodluck
Jonathan and concede defeat so that peace
will reign in the area.If President Jonathan
with all the powers at his beck could
concede defeat,why
shouldn’t T.A Orji?” While thanking the
outgoing President for his statesmanship by
not allowing the blood of innocent
Nigerians to be shed in the pursuit of self-
satisfacti on and urge for power,he
called on President Jonathan to call to order
one of his ministers,who he said had been
using the military and other agencies of
government to rig elections in the state and
also intimidating
opposition party members.
He also called on the chairman of INEC, Prof
Attahiru Jega and other stakeholders to
ensure credible polls on Saturday, alleging
that they have obtained reports on the plot
by the PDP to hire thugs from Abala Ibeme
in Obingwa LGA and
Rivers State to unleash mayhem on Abians in
the nine local government areas of
Ngwaland,set the famous Ariaria
International Market ablaze as well
as cause confusion among voters on the day
of the election.
He also alleged of an ongoing
thumbprinting of fake ballot papers in an
undisclosed location in Ngwaland, plans to
rig the election among other hidden agenda
including the planned mass arrest of APGA
senior officials a few days to the gover­
norship poll.
