'Two Million Women' Hold Rally Asking Atiku To Concede Presidential Election To Buhari
"The hostile environment being created by Atiku's stance has been made even tenser by his reported demands on President Buhari, made through the National Peace Committee. Such behaviour suggests an opposition that has transmuted into a dictatorship, one that is hell-bent on blackmailing the country to impose itself on the people when it has been clearly rejected at the polls. This is not acceptable at a time when Nigerians expect that anyone that aspired to govern the country would at the very least imbibe the spirit of sportsmanship championed by former President Jonathan."
BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORK MAR 01, 2019

Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate in last Saturday's presidential election, has been urged to toe the path of former President Goodluck Jonathan and congratulate President Muhammadu Buhari on winning the election.

The appeal was made by women under the auspices of the 'Two Million Women Rally for Democracy' held on Friday in Abuja.

Mary Onuche, Convener of the 'Two Million Women Rally for Democracy,' noted that although the PDP candidate is within his constitutional right to seek redress, such disruptive and frightful atmosphere could lead to anarchy.

She said: "Fortunately for Nigeria, our democracy, though still young, has continued to evolve in ways that reassure us that things can only get better. One such leap is the development in 2015 when the then President Goodluck Jonathan called to congratulate the then winner of the presidential election, incumbent President Buhari, even before the votes' tally was completed. That singular act of patriotism is today hailed as the benchmark of the level of statesmanship befitting of candidates in our elections. May God bless President Goodluck Jonathan, the hero of our modern democracy.

"This has become a modern democratic culture in Nigeria for which former President Jonathan will continue to receive accolades. Had he acted contrary at that time, perhaps democratic growth in Nigeria might have been stunted or even truncated.

"But thankfully he set the benchmark, a standard that we today expect from anyone that takes part in the presidential election. We therefore call on Alhaji Atiku Abubakar to emulate the statesmanship of President Jonathan and quit his ongoing disruptive stance on the election.

"There have been series of calls on him to call and congratulate President Buhari as the winner of the election, which would infer that he would by consequence give up any legal challenge of the election result. We are tempted to align with the first half of this demand that Atiku calls President Buhari to offer his congratulations, but we will not suggest that he forfeits his right to seeking judicial redress. He is very free to approach the courts to ventilate his grievances."

The group, however, urged him to take a position that would ensure peace in the post-election process, noting that his utterances against the election outcome were capable of causing crisis in the country.

She continued: "What is unacceptable, however, is the adoption of positions and making of utterances that are being interpreted by his supporters and party members as a call to violence. We have become aware that his supporters are strategizing for violent protests that they are targeting to cause chaos nationwide and bring down the government. Some of Atiku's lieutenants and political associates are subtly encouraging such protests through comments they have been making in the mainstream media and their social media accounts.

"The hostile environment being created by Atiku's stance has been made even tenser by his reported demands on President Buhari, made through the National Peace Committee. Such behaviour suggests an opposition that has transmuted into a dictatorship, one that is hell-bent on blackmailing the country to impose itself on the people when it has been clearly rejected at the polls. This is not acceptable at a time when Nigerians expect that anyone that aspired to govern the country would at the very least imbibe the spirit of sportsmanship championed by former President Jonathan.

"Our democracy comes first before the personal fixations of any politician. We insist that the peace accord signed by political parties and their candidates, including Atiku, must be respected. Nigeria truly deserves peace and stability at this point in time, which is why we are holding this 'Two Million Women Rally for Democracy in Nigeria' to demand for national stability and peace in Nigeria.

"While we remain apolitical, we are encouraged by the assessment of international election observation missions, which in spite of their earlier tilt in favour of Atiku prior to the election, have come out to declare that the conduct and the outcome of the poll was satisfactory to them. We suggest that Atiku takes time to slow down and listen to his foreign allies who have now concluded that even the Parallel Vote Tabulation they used as control showed that the PDP candidate was fairly defeated."

Buharig is trying to blackmail and bully everybody to legitimize the stolen mandate. He has sent low self esteem southerners to mock igbos and threaten them with "political oblivion". They have been boosting the egos some lowlife SS people thanking them for voting more apc and how they are now more important than igbos when actually they invaded SS and killed them en mass and wrote fake results. Now they are protesting despite bring the "victors". Atiku is not the otuoke fisherman. A true democrat who will follow democratic process to the end. His suppoters are going on with their normal business but buhari wasted innocent lives whenever he lost. Igbos will not compromise their political philosophy because of cheap blackmail. We will lead opposition and that's the beauty of democracy

APC is really scared about Atiku going to court, but why?

I'll tell you....

They know the ratings of their dullard at the world stage would futher nosedive by the time Atiku begins to show his evidence.
He knows he can never mount the podium outside this shore to scream " my fifu za bery kwarapt" again cos his international audience will shout him down.

Video evidence! Body cameras, cloudflare etc > grin grin grin Real hard evidence!

Where is the 2 million people?

I won't be surprised if apc and buhari start blaming their failures on atiku taking them to court as the reason why things are working in this country.

If apc and buhari has put same amount of effort in moving this country forward, we would be miles ahead, and not stocked in this situation.

Women sponsored by Atiku team when they discover it is obvious Atiku have no case to prove against the election, with this he will claim he's is conceding defeat because Nigerian asked him to.

Atiku am also a Nigeria, you are a coward if you don't go to court to contest the result of this election.

The women should be shot with AK-47, survivors should be reshot with AK-49. These women are saboteurs who are working against the economy of the country. Atikuchukwu has stolen billions of naira from Nigeria, this is an opportunity to give back some of the billions to the economy by giving senior lawyers free money. The lawyers know that Atikuchukwu has no case to present in court, but lawyers will still milk Atikuchukwu dry. The money gotten by the senior lawyers will pay salaries of junior lawyers, some lawyers will even buy houses and cars. Please let Atikuchukwu go to court and give Nigeria back some of our stolen money.
