THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE TOOK TO THE STREET IN
OSUN STATE TO PROTEST THE ELECTORAL FRAUD
IN ANAMBRA STATE( this is no longer a
struggle of who becomes the next Governor
of Anambra state, its a Struggle to save the
soul of this Nation from the menace of
corruption, fraud and electoral subjugation!
Its the Peoples Revolution a right to chose our
Political Leaders in a free,fair and credible
election its paramount its fundamental)
"OSUN RALLIES AGAINST ELECTORAL FRAUD IN
ANAMBRA
Governor of the state of Osun, Ogbeni Rauf
Aregbesola yesterday led thousands of
supporters of All Progressives Congress on a
protest march against the planned partial re-
run of the bungled Anambra state
governorship elections.
The protest march which took off from the
popular Freedom Square in Osogbo where
party faithfulls had converged saw the
Governor being accompanied by the state's
party chairman, Elder Adelowo Adebiyi, the
state Deputy Governor, Mrs Grace Titi Laoye-
Tomori, Alhaja Ayo Omidiran, all members of
the state executive council trekked in protest
against the election through Olaiya junction
and down to the INEC office in Osogbo.
Speaking shortly after the trek at the office of
the Independent National Electoral
Commission in Osogbo, , Ogbeni Rauf
Aregbesola said the efforts of the APC as a
party in ensuring that the people choose
those who lead them on a free and fair basis
have always been truncated and
compromised stressing that the efforts have
not yielded the desired results.
He said the aim of APC is to see that
democracy has a root in the land, noting that
there has been a lot of flawed electoral
processes in the past but non can be
compared to the recently conducted
gubernatorial elections in Anambra state in
terms of the level of compromise and
depravity witnessed in the elections.
While stating that the election ,which was
held on the 16th of November ,was seriously
compromised, the governor said that it is
highly disheartening to discover that people
had registered to vote and validated their
names on the voters register but could not
find their names on the voters register on the
day of elections.
He lamented a situation whereby the electoral
body itself admitted that the entire process
was flawed and unacceptable but the same
body turned round to still accept as free and
fair a terribly flawed and compromised
elections.
While stressing that INEC is no longer
Independent, the Governor pointed out that
its as if the electoral body is working a script
already prepared at the highest level of
government .
Ogbeni Aregbesola said that by all parameters
of evaluating an election the Anambra
election is a complete failure.
The Governor stated further that APC is
seriously committed to the entrenchment of
democracy, good conduct, rule of law and
transparency.
He then called for a total cancellation of the
elections that took place and also demanded
for a new and fresh elections that will be
based on an authentic voters register .
He also called on INEC to purge itself of people
who do not believe in the rights of man to
freely choose who they want to govern them
and cancel the elections in Anambra or else
the National Assembly will be called upon to
disband INEC .
Also in a statement signed by the Chairman of
the All People's Congress in the state, Elder
Lowo Adebiyi stated that evidences available
to Nigerians and INEC itself shows clearly that
the Anambra election held had been
deliberately programmed to fail all tests of a
free and fair elections and as such should be
cancelled.
The statement stated further that the current
INEC and its chairman has demonstrated
gross incompetence and cannot be depended
upon to conduct an acceptable and reliable
election in Nigeria after it had significantly
compromised the trust and confidence that
the people had reposed in them.

If the election is completely cancelled and re-conducted, will they accept defeat if they lose?
Something tells me they won't.

i think i now understand perfectly the mission of the 183 osun observers, they were to act as spies with disguised cameras taking shots and recordings of anomalies. if they had suceeded, they would have captured clearly a whole lot of electoral malpractices

The 183 osun observers went about a good project in the wrong way , no thanks to the jaundice electoral process in nigeria.

I have a feeling a mole or disgruntled fellow must have leaked the plan to the authorities.

See this supposedly crude approach was used by the osun governor to recover his stolen mandate from PDP in nov 2010.

When you go the court and scream of being rigged out, the court will ask for proofs, and if you cant provide enough of it beyond reasonable doubts , you are simply joking.

APC cashing in on the poverty of the people. They always have hired thugs in their thousands to join them in their stupid protests. With N200 those thugs would catch a grenade for their paymasters.
