Ekiti Election: Arewa Youths Attack Buhari Over Use Of Force Against Gov. Fayose by Danpersie31(op): 11:06pm On Jul 13, 2018
The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum, AYCF, has
attacked the President Muhammadu Buhari-led
Federal Government following the use of force
against the Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele
Fayose.
The organization wondered why a sitting
Government could be physically attacked by
security agencies of the Federal Government.
It described the situation as an international
embarrassment.
In a statement signed and made available to
DAILY POST by the National President of AYCF,
Alhaji Yerima Shettima, the organization warned
that the attempt to emasculate opposition
parties in Ekiti had far-reaching implications for
the forthcoming 2019 elections and the
country’s democratic future.
The youths said they have been following with
keen interest the brazen abuse of democratic
ethics and principles in the state through the
use force against Fayose and wish to declare
that:
“It is a smear on decorum and an international
embarrassment for a serving governor elected
by millions of the poor people on Ekiti to be
subjected to physical attack. We condemn this
Gestapo style in totality.
“We are disappointed that at this stage of our
nationl democratic history there are persons in
uniform ready to intimidate people, including the
Chief Security Officer of a State in broad
daylight, just to please their paymasters. This is
an uncivilized conduct, an attack on the Rule of
Law and therefore reprehensible.
“We deplore this level of desperation by the
ruling APC over an election in just one State out
of 36 States in the Federation, while we are
approaching nationwide elections in 2019.
“As a people who identify with the promotion of
democratic governance in Nigeria, we reject this
use of primitive means of impunity and open
manipulation of a simple electoral process.
“We wish to issue the timely warning that the
attempt to emasculate opposition parties in
Ekiti State at the moment has far-reaching
implications for the forthcoming 2019 elections
and our democratic future. This is therefore
objectionable in totality.
“From the series of street protests in support of
Fayose, it is evident that the impunity against
the governor was very unpopular. It held even in
Abuja, the capital if Nigeria. Most importantly
one of these protests held in Katsina State two
days ago. For this to have happened at the
President’s immediate constituency, it was
signal that everything was wrong with the APC
and police treatment of governor Fayose
“We also wish to announce that as monitors of
the nation’s democratic development we are
watching, very closely, all the happenings,
ahead of the Saturday governorship election in
Ekiti State and will support any effort to ensure
that the people’s votes count.
“Finally we call on all stakeholders in the
forthcoming Ekiti elections to ensure that the
millions of voters in the State enjoy the freedom
to vote for the candidates of their choice,
without any form of intimidation.
“We hope our message gets across to all
stakeholders including the security agents and
all those who call the shots in the ruling APC.
Enough of this unacceptable political
brigandage.”

Even the Arewa Youth too does not want the tyranny of their own brother.The heavy militarization of the Ekiti election is a delibrate act to stiffen the resolve of the people in exercising their franchise.

Shettima will still end up at the ICC for threatening ethnic cleansing against the Igbo.

If Buhari failed to honour whatever agreement you had with him will never make us forget to hand you over for trial.
