Buhari Won’t Change Election Results, Says Presidency by Ngtimes: 6:40pm On Mar 17, 2019
The Presidency has cautioned against a lot of the hate spewing, incitement to violence and the polarizing statements by so-called political leaders as a number of states brace up for supplementary elections prescribed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).


It also rejected unfair and ridiculous criticisms of President Muhammadu Buhari’s apparent disinterest in the upcoming elections in some states by party members who wrongfully assume that the President will abuse power by changing results to favour them.
A statement by the Senior Special Assistant on Media and publicity, Garba Shehu, also noted that some past Presidents of Nigeria were known to interfere in inconclusive elections.
This, he said, was the reason why party members appeared to be upset that the same thing is not happening now.
He added “But President Buhari is a different kind of leader. He swore to defend the constitution and will not veer off from that.
“The constitution of Nigeria gives the President no such powers. It is unfair and ridiculous to criticise President Buhari for not going against the constitution.
“Party members in states where there will be supplementary elections then need to be reminded that they need to work hard to earn their people’s votes, rather than expect President Buhari to manipulate INEC in their favour.
“Interestingly, while members of the ruling APC party were criticising the President for not interfering on their behalf, members of the opposition were condemning the President based on their assumptions that he would definitely interfere, as many in the opposition did while in power.
“Under President Buhari, INEC had been and will be completely independent throughout the elections, free from any interference.
“President Buhari is a man of conviction, and the manipulation of election results goes against everything he stands for. INEC is completely in charge.” he stated

The best way to know what Buhari will do is to hear when he says he will not do it. When that happens you are 100% sue he will do it.

But he can stylishly unleash soldiers on nigerians to aid his party leaders in connivance with INEC to rig and falsify results for his reelection.


Anyone who still believes a man who publicly said he remotely installed Osun state governor in office has integrity must either be a beneficiary of APC govt or a fool.

Says a shameless president that said;
"President Muhammadu Buhari, yesterday..revealed that APC was able to win the state’s governorship election held months back with the aid of remove control.

Buhari, who failed to provide details of what he meant by remote control, said: “I know how much trouble we had in the last election here. I know by remote control through so many sources how we managed to maintain the party (APC) in power in this state.”

Buhari and his men will definitely adopt Osun template in Kano for sure. Reason why Gandollar is so confident of victory. Watch out for white handkerchief as used by APC voters/supporters during the Osun rerun.

Maybe in kano, it will be red or blue or yellow handkerchief. So anyone without it, will not be allowed by the soldiers/thugs to vote.

They forget that they came to power through elections supervised by now opposition party. Could they have come to power if the then ruling party had "inconclusiveness" as a yard stick. Most of the time those spewing on behalf of 'power that be' believed that Nigerians do not reason or rather have short memories
