. Suspects APC, Buhari’s confidence *Plots to foil any possible subversive plots

The deployment of troops by the military to keep surveillance on the All Progressives Congress, and its leaders, is to prevent the leading opposition party from hatching any plot that may give it undue advantage over the ruling Peoples Democratic Party or any other party in the coming general election.

This was made known by top military sources at the Defence Headquarters, DHQ, and the Army Headquarters, AHQ, in an investigation conducted by our reporter in Abuja.

The disclosure contradicts the claim by the military that its deployment of troops to the residence of APC national leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha, was a mere routine.

The sources disclosed that the military had become very suspicious of the unwavering confidence of the APC and its presidential candidate, Maj-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, rtd, to emerge victorious in the forthcoming presidential election rescheduled for March 28.

The party and its leaders, according to the sources, it is believed might be up to some untoward plots.

“It was on that basis that the Nigerian Army was directed to deploy troops to keep surveillance on the opposition APC and its leaders to prevent them from hatching their plots,” said a source.

The sources said that the military became very uncomfortable since the day General Buhari insisted that his certificates were with the military secretary, in an effort to drag the military into politics, when he allegedly knew fully that gamthey had never sighted his said certificates.

“His courage and insistence on this made us in the military to become very skeptical about his ambition and what he is actually up to”, one of the sources said.

It further stated that the military was very uncomfortable with the APC’s mobilisation against the shifting in the elections dates, which was incapable of interfering with handover date, making the military to believe that there was more to it than the desire for a free and fair election and transition on May 29.

This is not the first time that security agencies are suspecting the APC of doing something to subvert the electoral processes.

The Department of State Services, DSS, had accused the party of cloning voter’s cards and subsequently raided its Lagos office, but the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, was swift to absolve the APC by saying that its database was intact and that there was no way the APC could clone the voter’s cards.

Particularly, the source said that the military was very worried about the claims of INEC to have distributed Permanent Voter’s Cards, PVCs, to the fullest in the war torn North East, where they are in charge and could tell the story better about the people and populations there.

It said that military’s suspicions about this was based on the fact that the APC was very confident in the midst of these complaints, including those in Lagos, Ogun states and elsewhere, where PVCs have not been distributed in percentages close to those of the North

If it is discovered that tinubu and his APC cohorts has planned to undermine the security of the nation or plotted in anyway to manipulate the electoral process to benefit them thereby disrupting the peace of this nation they should be arrested and made to face the law of the land for no one is above her
