BMO TO ATIKU: SOLICITING VENEZUELA OPTION IS TREASONABLE FELONY

The security agencies have been urged to investigate the former Vice President Abubakar Atiku’s unholy romance with foreign bodies especially the United States of America, in pursuit of a mandate he never had.

The Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) also accused Atiku of seeking to destabilise the country in a bid to realise his failed ambition to be President.

This, it said, is the reason he had been lobbying the US authorities to recognise him as authentic President, even though he overwhelmingly lost the February 23 Presidential election to President Muhammadu Buhari.

BMO said in a statement signed by its Coordinator Niyi Akinsiju and Secretary Cassidy Madueke that the step the former Vice President is taking is a treasonable act that has its dire consequences.

“We had in the past drawn attention to the desperation of the failed PDP Presidential candidate to rule Nigeria at all cost and it is becoming more obvious with his latest gambit.

“Not satisfied with pushing out cooked-up figures which he and his party claimed they got from the server of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and are using as the basis of their legal challenge at the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal, Alhaji Abubakar is now using lobbyists in order to con the United States to his side.

“We at BMO are not surprised because we had raised an alarm even before the election that PDP elements had been preparing ground for what they called a ‘Venezuelan option’ by instigating the international community against the President Buhari-led administration, and by raising all sorts of false alarms.

“And now that news has filtered out that Atiku has hired some prominent American lawyers to lobby the US Congress and the Executive to recognise him as President, it beggars belief that a man who rose to the position of Vice President could be engaged in acts that amount to treasonable felony, especially as the legally authorised body in election matters, INEC, declared that he lost the Presidential election," the group said.

It also pointed that some of the measures being taken by the failed Presidential candidate to win American support is the ploy that he is the man to prevent 'genocide, poverty, corruption and strife' in Nigeria.

BMO said: “We have seen how banditry has suddenly threatened to spiral out of control in Zamfara State and some other parts of North-Western Nigeria almost immediately after the election. These are places that were relatively peaceful before and during the election and which also had a reasonable turn out of voters.

“It should not be a surprise that this spectre of violence is deliberately orchestrated and coordinated as part of a game plan to make the incumbent President look helpless and win US support for the failed PDP presidential candidate who is not even known to be popular in that part of the country ".

The pro- Buhari group urged the US authorities to guard against being used by unpatriotic Nigerians to work against an election that their representative in the country had hailed as largely free and fair.

It said: “Even though Ambassador Stuart Symington had, in the run up to the election appeared to show some sympathy for the opposition, apparently based on media reports that had been deliberately skewed to present the incumbent in bad light, he was fair enough to rate the election as reasonably credible.

“We also need to remind the Americans that the main local election observer group they funded, the Youth Initiative for Advocacy, Growth and Advancement (YIAGA) validated Buhari’s victory as declared by INEC, using a Parallel Voter Tabulation (PVT) compiled by 3,030 observers.

“Aside from that, the European Union, UK, France and Russia have since congratulated President Buhari on his re-election with all of them hailing the process as credible and transparent.

“We now wonder why Atiku Abubakar would take his desperation to the extent of seeking a Venezuelan-style US intervention in an election that he lost overwhelmingly, and at a time he has filed a legal challenge to the outcome of the election".

BMO also urged Nigerians to be prepared to defend the mandate they freely and overwhelmingly gave to President Buhari in February.

Hmm!


Not from atiku but BMO personal fear.

Is that all buhari

Buhari is not even as nice as Maduro of Venezuela.....
He is born wicked and brutal.

Na collabo of Lauren Gbagbo and Sudan Albashir we go do am.

Yaya Jameh of Gambia and Maduro of Venezuela

Tell your oga to return someones stolen mandate if not you wont find peace period.

hg

You folks should stop all these rubbish noise and propaganda and meet Atiku in court..

April 16th is just a few days away..

If the idiotic pigs we have in government today,thinks they are so powerful,they should go ahead n charge Atiku with treason. Without letting the law determine this case to it's finally conclusion,the western powers will automatically give this stupid government the Venezuela treatment. Stupid idiots!

Buhari media oafs beating their dry almajiri chests n talking treason up n down like they know anything about the word.
The useless dullard that rigged the general elections n forced himself on his almajiri people is desperate and unsettled.
I guess he knows that his stolen mandate is shaky reason his media oafs are making so much noise all over cyberspace.

"BMO also urged Nigerians to be prepared to defend the mandate they freely and overwhelmingly gave to President Buhari in February."

May God overwhelmingly punish these bastards for this particular line. Fools!

Perhaps it was not treason writing the US government in 2013/14 not to sell weapons to us for the purpose of tackling boko haram and also asking them to block the sales from any other friendly nation to us? Bastard rabid dogs that's what they are.

the three times buhari lost, did he congratulates the winners?
