Exclusion: YDP Calls For Cancellation Of Poll Results by DAVECENA(m): 4:00am On Mar 31, 2015
The Young Democratic Party, YDP, has called for the
immediate cancellation of the 2015 elections, saying its
exclusion by the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) from the ballot papers fell short of
the Electoral law.
National leader of YDP, Henry Nwabueze in a statement
made available in Abuja, said the Prof. Jega led INEC
deliberately refused to include YDP in the ballot even
when it was clear that YDP had fulfilled the
requirements to be so included in the ballots having
been proclaimed a political party.
“In compliance with the law, YDP submitted the list of
its candidates to INEC for this 2015 General elections.
Today the Young Democratic Party regret to inform
Nigerians that INEC has failed because it unlawfully
refused to include YDP in the 2015 General election
Ballot paper. By this, INEC is practicing democracy of
the few, by the few and for the few. Accordingly, YDP
calls on the idependent INEC to cancel the just
concluded March 28, 2015 Presidential and National
Assembly elections and refrain from announcing the
results, including the names of the winners or losers in
that election.
“Indeed, by virtue of the Electoral Act, Section 78,
subsection 4, YDP became a registered political party in
Nigeria as of May 2, 2014. Although INEC is fully aware
of this fact and inspite of numerous notifications, it
nevertheless proceeded, against common sense and
reason to exclude YDP in this 2015 General election.
” This action of INEC is deliberate, violative of the
Electoral Act, violative of the constitution and quite
frankly, offensive to all notions of fair play and justice.
In view of the unlawful exclusion of YDP a lawfully
registered political party in violation of the electoral act
and a subsisting federal high court judgement,the
leadership of YDP and its NEC has resolved to proceed
to court to seek for cancellation of the March 28
presidential election and conduct of fresh polls to
include YDP,” Nwabueze stated.
It said by so doing, the INEC had disenfranchised
several Nigerians and infringed on their fundamental
rights of association as well as the right to function as a
political party.
“We cannot as law abiding citizens, members and
leaders of a duly registered political party fold our arms
and allow INEC to deny us our constitutionally
guaranteed right to present and field candidates for
elective offices in Nigeria,” the YDP national leader
stated.

the north created Boko Haram to make GEJ government un-gorvernable, in order to wrestle power from GEJ,then peradventure, Buhari wins,let Nigerians know that Niger Delta should also rise against Buhari and make him restless until he dies of HBP. The Northerners alone are not born to rule Nigerians.
If Buhari wins, Nigerians prepare for another stronger violence in Nigeria.
I am not supporting violence in Nigeria,but this is the true nature of things to happen if Buhari wins.
Even Buhari's certificateless issue on ground is enough to cause uprising after he's sworn in as Nigeria's next president. No one is above the law.all heads are equal.
