APC: Unlike Trump, Buhari Showed True Statesmanship When He Lost Elections by ExAngel007(f): 12:39pm On Jan 10, 2021
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described
events that trailed the presidential election of
the United States as “condemnable”.

In a statement, John Akpanudoedehe, secretary
of its caretaker and extra-ordinary convention
planning committee, said strong institutions are
fundamental to the sustenance of democracy.

Akpanudoedehe said the series of events that
occurred after the election “strongly underscores
the fact that the integrity of the country’s
leader essentially complements the workings of
these institutions”.

While comparing President Muhammadu Buhari with
his US counterpart, he said despite losing a
number of elections, Buhari showed strong
statesmanship and followed due process in
contesting the elections.

“The events of the past 72 hours in the U.S. are,
to say the least, condemnable. Over time,
elections in the U.S. had been used as a
touchstone for elections in other democracies,” he
said.
“President Muhammadu Buhari contested and lost
elections a couple of times and followed the
process through to the Supreme Court on all
accounts. This is an outstanding credential of a
true democrat.”

In 2003, Buhari called for mass action when he
lost to former President Olusegun Obasanjo of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

He also contested the outcome of the 2007
election which was won by the late President
Umaru Musa Yar’Adua.

But contrary to this, Buhari, ahead of the April
2011 presidential election, had called for a
revolution through voting.

Buhari, who had contested the election under the
platform of the Congress for Progressive Change
(CPC) against ex-President Goodluck Jonathan,
had asked Nigerians to make exceptional sacrifices
to assert their collective will in the country


.
Following the declaration of Jonathan as winner of
the April 2011 election, Buhari’s supporters went
on rampage, alleging electoral malpractice.

The violence began with widespread protest in the
northern region and degenerated into violent riots
that led to the killing of more than 800 people.

Buhari did not lose an election as an incumbent president... No basis for comparison here.

Which Buhari?
When Baba saw that unlike 2015 he had lost favour and supportership with most Nigerians in 2019, rather than allow himaelf to be disgrace like Trump after losing the election Baba played balls by rigging the election in his favour.

Same Buhari that always claims that he was rigged out of all the elections. Challenged the outcome of those elections up to supreme court.
Same Buhari that even instigated the killing of Corpers in 2011 just because he lost the 2011 election.
Abeg tell this shit to your Zombies.
