How Jonathan Stopped Anenih From Rigging Edo Election !!!! by dtemidare: 12:21pm On Aug 09, 2012
GEJ stopped anenih from rigging elections in Edo yet they say he is clueless.
INFORMATION HAS REAVEALED THE FOLLOWING:

IF NOT for the quick intervention of President Goodluck Jonathan, the likes of Tony Anenih and Gabriel Igbinedion would have masterminded a huge electoral fraud that would have kicked off an upheaval during the last Edo State Governorship election.

President Jonathan, however insisted that ‘votes must count’. Said our source “ The AC at a point and even the Governor were somehow uncomfortable with security reports on plans by the PDP. They were worried because, the consequences would have been massive as the people would have revolted and resort to violence.”

Jonathan gave specific instructions to electoral officer, police commissioner and their sub ordinates, army etc. to stop any group or persons who would want to subvert the elections.

the President also placed calls to the chief of Army staff, General Azubike Ihejirika, and the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Abubakar. He asked that 3500 army personnel be deployed to Edo,

GEJ also instructed Mohammed to remove Olayinka Balogun who is barely six months in the saddle and brought deputy CP, Femi Adenaike is not familiar with the PDP chief.

President Jonathan further insisted that no form of malpractice would be tolerated because of its consequences.

I don't like the man cos he is not my father but he should be given a chance to make a difference.

Only a President who is committed to his political agenda can allow opposition win an election in his region. He promised free and fair election, instructed that votes must count and said one man one vote, the result is showing. Even OSHIOMOLE came on TV to applaud GEJ. Electoral reform is settled, power is improving, tranformation Agenda is taking shape, even as Nigerians now are breathing fresher air.

Rubbish Nonsense. Why didn't he stopped rigging in his own election? Or why all the manipulation in the judicial system when CPC dragged PDP to court of the last presidential elections. They practically removed the Judge and put another just in order give PDP favourable judgement.

A beg, go sit for toilet. Stop thinking we are all stupid.
