*says like Pontius Pilate, Prof Mahmood should wash hands off case by telling truth at tribunal

By KATO P. LADAN, Kaduna


The SA to former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar on Youth & Support Groups, Amb Aliyu Bin Abbas has warned the Independent National Electoral Co mission (INEC) that it should not threaten Nigeria’s democracy which came through sacrifices made in spite of dangers that were staring the agitators in the face at that time.


He expressed this in an open letter addressed to the INEC Chairy, Professor Yakubu Mahmood, which was circulated online on Thursday April 25, 2019.


“Sir, I would like to start by reminding you that one singular path to cast into the abyss the democracy of any nation is to aid and abet rigging during elections. It’s a recognized fact that once democracy is undermined, it would take just a little time before it collapses.


“Kindly be reminded that Nigeria’s democracy did not come free of cost. It took the tears, sweat, and the blood of many Nigerians who matched to the streets to protest against the autocratic and tyrannical regimes of the military.

“Many people paid dearly with their lives, while those who escaped death became debilitated for the remainder of their lives. These uncelebrated men and women gave in everything hoping that the next generation would enjoy the dividends of a new Nigeria,” he said.


Also contained in the letter titled, ‘AN OPEN LETTER TO THE INEC CHAIRMAN, PROF YAKUBU MAHMOUD A REMINDER’ he said that sustenance of democracy begins with electing qualified candidates who will not undermine the rule of law.


“Sir, you will agree with me that the sustainability of democracy begins with electing qualified candidates who will not undermine the constitution, rubbish the rule of law and separation of power, disobey court orders, and drag down all other institutions of democracy.


“The system can only be sustained if the masses are allowed to decide who lead them devoid of any manipulation.


“The 2019 presidential election organized under your leadership is the WORST in the entire history of the human race to say the least.


“It is the most unfortunate thing that has ever happened to Nigeria. HURIWA described it as “a crime which is worse than that of Evans the Kidnapper.” Chief Femi Falana SAN called it a “total mess.” He said.


Ambassador Abbas pointed out that despite overwhelming evidence, which shows that INEC under his leadership rigged the February’s election in favour of the incumbent, Muhammadu Buhari of the APC, he went ahead and declared a cooked and fraudulent result, returning the candidate of the APC as the president-elect.


“The attitude displayed by your commission (INEC) has added credence to the widely held believe that INEC under your leadership has been politicized and will never for any reason be trusted by the good people of Nigeria,” he stated.

He further told Professor Mwhmood that there is nothing as disgraceful and more irritating than the shameless denial of his commission in respect of the 2019 presidential election results in the INEC server.

“The result in the server (PDP ~ 18,356,732; APC ~ 16,741,430) shows that Atiku Abubakar of the PDP is the true and genuine winner of the 23rd February 2019 presidential election.

“But INEC announcing a concocted and a fraudulent result proves that the commission deliberately worked in cohort with Buhari and the APC to rig out Atiku Abubakar of the PDP.

“Kindly note that under your leadership, INEC has made it very clear (in both videos & print) that the commission will electronically transmit result of the February 23rd presidential election across all the polling units in the country into a central server to enhance transparency and credibility of the process.

Word!!

INEC chairman should understand that the Buhari administration has an expiry date after which their misrule including his complicity will be exposed.

He should honourably spill the beans and die because either way he is dead already.

IF you look at Nigeria even in the next twenty years , hope of getting a better nation is very slim.....
The fight for democracy , was carried out by civilians , they died in the process of the fight..and after the fight , what do we have ? Military men with Military minds ruling us in a military way ....and we the civilians are still singing their rhymes , "Sai baba" "OBJ"....
The democracy we are talking about here has been a "demonstration of craze"according to the late fela ...
No matter what the outcome of the court us , concerning this issue ,it's clear buhari would never accept, and we say we are running democracy....
I'm sorry for Nigeria !!!!

Atiku should rent more crowds to help him crying. Nobody give you mandate people said they don't want you through their vote yet you're still crying.

Oshey Chinua Achebe the writer.

Provide us the manual collation and you will have nothing to worry about. You hacked and inputted figures into the server and you think you won? Bara oo!

So people where expecting the inec chairman to conduct free and fair election before so that buhari will fail, buhari will rather kill everyone for him to remain in power, buhari and his cabals love power more than Allah Incase you don’t know

You guys should stop giving Atiku false hope, Nigerians voted for Buhari not because he's best Candidate but PDP choice of given Atiku ticket gave Buhari more chance.

thank GOD he said the result from pdp server, because as abbas affirm inec that all poling unit result will be collated electronically, but all poling unit did not make use of card reader,
so where did alcameroonian collated his result from all poling unit through card reader.

Frustration and desperation will certainly kill Atiku and his supporters.

[Its a big shame though,we continue to pray for this country and hope it becomes better say 50yrs or 100yrs from now.Hope is all we need.quote author=Joshmodest post=77835120] IF you look at Nigeria even in the next twenty years , hope of getting a better nation is very slim.....
