The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) cautions the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) not to ever contemplate bending the rules to smuggle in candidates from the Zamfara state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Whereas legally, all congresses and related processes for election of candidates for various offices for the 2019 general elections ended yesterday (Sunday, October 7, 2018), the Zamfara state chapter of the APC has not conducted any congress, and by the provision of the law, it has no candidates in all the elections.

The PDP is aware of a clandestine meeting today between topmost officials of INEC and Zamfara state government, where INEC was instructed to manipulate the system and bend the rules to accommodate the APC.

The PDP cautions the Chairman of INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, over this attempt to manipulate the processes and use underhand measures to liberate the APC from the cul de sac it plunged itself into in Zamfara state.

We insist that the laws guiding our elections must be upheld, as the PDP will never accept anything short of that.

Finally, the PDP wants the APC and INEC to know that our party is at alert regarding all electoral processes, in line with our avowed determination to dismantle APC’s rigging machinery in the 2019 general elections.

Trying times for APC. Oshiomole brought unionism into party politics and that will likely destroy the party. Well, let's keep our fingers crossed and see how it goes.

The only option left for APC is to chose a concesus candidate. INEC chairman must be the most confused professor in the world now.

I am not sure that will work; I think that option is subject to congress. I don't have all the information anyway.

Shekpe

Does PDP have a Governorship candidate in Ogun State yet?

They were busy watching PDP national convention and forgot to conduct congress in zamfara, even fixed a national convention to elect an already elected lifeless man (apologies to Donald Trump).

Lets see how it plays out, we are watching with PDP.

Aticulated Zamfara

At least parallel primaries were held. It will be Left for the courts rro decide who eventually flies the flag

Double wahala for dead body, and the owner of dead body.

So PDP will just win Zamfara unopposed?

And you say our lord is not good?

Zamfara is already sweet for PDP

Where is Atiku2019 campaign office I need to go there on my freetime. I want to work for free

APC = CHAOS!

Nigerians patiently waiting for INEC..

Learners! APC must have submitted one name, which they will substitute at the right time...Just like what Saraki did in Kwara.

This got APC at the jugular.They might end up not having candidates for any electoral position in Zamfara.
Meanwhile INEC was busy shouting about 7th October to be the last date for conducting primaries and settling all dispute related to it.They were thinking PDP is going to come out with issues after their convention.Hence will be disqualified for not meeting up with the death line.

Mind your business ok

PDP and lamentations

Yes dear. Its possible. 1. 52 million is Apc's presidential form while 12 milla is PDP's. 2. With mass movement, we form/register our party(e.g Nigeria youth movement party) with 100,000k as fee for form not just presidential but governorship,assembly members etc. 3. We campaign for one another to the grassroots, mobilize, create awareness, show solidarity and if need be, have a contributory fund for transport. 4. Massive awareness and advisory contributions from u and others will make everything possible. Let's have more youths in state and national assemblies first and we can be partly funded. Something tells me it will work if we agree and cleverly go about it.

ok

Men and brethren, in this shall we know if INEC has pitched its tent with the APC. If they have, then we know too they will be working with APC fulltime in 2019, but we shall not let it happen. We shall resist it as Nigerians with all our might. So help we God!

Baawaa:

Let's make Nigeria work again. I AM ATIKULATED

You've already started crying wolf where there is none - What a shame .

The court will decide in Ogun State while Zamfara represents the true state of the mediocre party called APC with her lifeless flag bearer.

Very careless of them
