Tinubu Attacks Military, Says Jonathan Planning To Rig by Ovularia: 3:36am On Feb 10, 2015
Tinubu attacks military, says Jonathan planning to rig

FEBRUARY 10, 2015 BY ENIOLA AKINKUOTU 6 COMMENTS

A former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has lambasted the nation’s service chiefs for advising the Independent National Electoral Commission not to go ahead with the February 14 presidential elections.

The All Progressives Congress leader said it was suspicious that the military were planning an offensive against Boko Haram on the same day the elections were supposed to hold despite the fact that INEC had announced the date of the elections over a year ago.

Tinubu said in a statement on Monday that it was unlikely that the military would be able to defeat Boko Haram in six weeks as the Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh, had failed after boasting that the military would defeat Boko Haram in four months last April.

He said, “This postponement is a smokescreen because what the letter says is that they are advising a postponement of six weeks in the first instance subject to the amelioration of the security situation in the North-East. This is coming from a Chief of Defence Staff that vowed to crush the insurgents within four months early last year. A year later, nothing has changed. He is now asking Nigerians to believe this government can do in six weeks what it could not do in six years.

“This postponement has deeply wounded Nigerian democracy. While my party hoped to go into the election and win it that we may offer a new and honest deal to the people, this government continues to feed the people a raw deal.”

The former governor said the postponement was evidence that President Goodluck Jonathan was not ready to hold free and fair elections.

He warned the President to put the interest of Nigeria above his personal ambition so as not to plunge the nation into crisis.

He said, “What happened Saturday was actually not a postponement due to security or logistical reasons. What happened was the by-product of overt political interference undermining the independence of the election management body, INEC.

“The elections were postponed not because they could not safely be held. They were postponed because one man, President Jonathan, feared that an election held on February 14 would for him become an election lost.

“While the mouth was Jega, the words were Jonathan. He chose to place our democracy at risk than do what democracy demands by facing and risking the verdict of the people. That he would use our security agencies to provide his excuse only adds insult to injury.”

I don't really like Tinubu but Tinubu is right with assessment of things. Jonathan is hell bent to cause civil war in Nigeria. The international community is watching. All eyes on Nigeria.

Shut up idiots. When Jega connived with APC to starve southerners of PVCs you didn't see anything wrong with it baa? Well Jega don do him own ,now is time for GEJ to also show them who is in charge. Jega would be rendered useless even if he remains inec chairman, the state RECs and security agencies would be used to do the work. Since you idiots do not want free and fair elections, let the best rigger win

Imagine some of them talking about replacing Jega at this 11th hour. How is the next "INEC Chairman" going to get confirmed by the senate? If Jonathan wants to see a revolt, he should go ahead and do the unlawful thing he did with Sanusi and expect the Hausa/Fulani to vote for a new INEC Chairman. Jega cannot be sacked because he is an independent officer of electoral body.

The hausa-fulani can do nothing, if we are to get scared of any people it should be the Niger delta who provides the money that feeds the nation.No one is scared of your threats of violence anymore

You people don't fear God. Your GEJ will be disgraced and destroyed in public if he insists on continuing down this path. The judgment of the Almighty God is waiting for him and his co-conspirators. Nigeria is God's property, it does not belong to any man.

We are used to such words "Sanusi can not be sacked cos only 2/3 of the Senate can remove him as stipulated by the constitution". But where is Sanusi now?

Let Jonathan try it while the whole country is riled up and while the international community is watching. You want to change an umpire few days before an election that polls show you are going to lose miserably. The same umpire that refereed the election you won in 2011. That umpire is now a bad person, right? Be my guest grin grin grin

The demise of Jonathan as nothing to do with Jega. people just don't want Jonathan anymore for his ineptness and corruption. Nigerians are ready to vote for a doll or cat to replace Jonathan. This election is a referendum on Jonathan's last five year record. It is not that Buhari is that popular. People just want a change from PDP and Jonathan. Anyone would beat Jonathan at this time.

No adjective qualify you than bigot!
I don't know your age but I will send you to your father to simply ask him Agunyi Irosi coup, the event before and post event.
The incident I'm sending to your father for , produced what you call biafra but because of some generated or concorted lies by some igbo crooks to their ethnics . They also tried to extend that lies to Yoruba race but they quickly rejected it and subsequently, they tag Yoruba a traitor for not supporting their greedy and selfish interest.

Just yesterday I was driving to buy fuel when a call came in, he said he was calling from APC call center and if I had collected my PVC I said no I then asked him how he got my number, he said he got it from INEC data base. I was shocked. He said I should please voted for GMB when I collect my PVC or alternatively I should not vote at all. I started thinking that DSS claim that APC have hacked into the data base of INEC to clone and rig the election might be true.
