ABUJA- Arising from its Expanded Caucus
meeting on Monday, the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, has resolved to
petition the United Nations, UN, over the
role the military allegedly played in the
February 23 Presidential and National
Assembly elections.

Addressing newsmen at the end of the
meeting, spokesman of the party, Kola
Ologbondiyan said PDP would align with
its Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar
in his quest to “reclaim his mandate,”
following his decision to go to court to
contest the outcome of the polls.
He said, “The caucus noted the role of
the military in the February 23 election
and resolved that we will report the
action of the military through a petition
to UN as well as other global democratic
institutions on the role of our military in
the Feb 23 election.
“Caucus further raised issues about the
harassment, intimidation and cajoling of
our members on the plot by the
presidency as well as All Progress
Congress, APC to intimidate former Vice
President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and the
resolve of the PDP to go to court by
insisting, blackmailing and saying that he
should not go to court. We insist that our
party and our candidate have resolved to
seek legal redress on the stolen
mandate.”
According to him, the party’s caucus
also “commended Nigerians for
refusing the harassment, intimidation
and militarisation of the electoral process
and participating in the election but
noted that the mandate that was freely
given to our candidate was stolen and as
such, the party and the candidate jointly
resolved to go to the tribunal and
reaching the end of what is permissible
within our legal system to get back our
mandate on behalf of Nigerians.”
The party, according to the publicity
scribe, also resolved to appeal the
judgement of the Federal High court
sitting in Kano which nullified the
candidacy of the PDP governorship flag
bearer, Abba Yusuf.
The party further decried the
“militarisation of the South-South and
the rigging which the APC is plotting
ahead of the election,” even as it urged
Nigerians to come out enmasse and
participate in the governorship elections.

Military was the same mechanism PDP used for 16years to intimidate and cow opposition so why are they crying foul, besides the same guys that were in PDP are the same guys in APC so nothing really changed.

Nigeria military and police are really embarrassing. These guys do not have homes. Go to the barracks and see what the meaning of the word SQUALOR is. The Police is worse off. Some have their belongings in the Police Station. so, I wonder why they still support an oppressive regime

Medicine after death. Lol.

i dont even think there is anything they can do about it
