The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has charged the National Assembly to save the country’s democracy by immediately overriding President Muhammadu Buhari’s refusal to sign the amendment of the Electoral Act.
The PDP said “this legislative action has become imperative, as the President’s decision is a calculated attempt to hold the nation to ransom, inject crisis into the electoral process and ultimately scuttle the conduct of next year’s general elections, seeing that there is no way he can win in a free and fair contest.”
In a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, the party noted that Buhari’s repeated refusal to sign amendments passed to check rigging in the election raises issues of his sincerity of purpose and has the capacity to trigger political unrest and violence, which can, in turn, truncate the country’s democracy.
It urged Nigerians “to note that this is the fourth time Buhari is withholding assent on the amendment without any cogent reason.

They don't have the numbers

Positive steps

A step in the right direction

BUY CHEAP INTERNET DATA FOR MTN. CHECK MY PROFILE FOR MORE DETAILS

If this man becomes president again by 2019, Nigerians will end up eating themselves.






You can mark this as a reference. We have not really see anything. Some of those that are are shouting corruption here will sell their children to buy food.

Let's just call in the army to seize power......

Day dreamer. Will PDP get the required 2/3 majority from Ochanja market? Definitely the crowd at down flyover would not make up the required 2/3 .

Overriding in a fraudulent ways or with due process?

Cos you guys don't have the numbers in both the house and senate

PDP and wahala... Can't u just campaign without looking for ur opponent fault

Let PDP use the existing Electoral Act passed and signed by the same PDP

supported

Flush all of them.

The judiciary especially for giving so much impunity to these guys to loot this country dry and walk away free of charge.

As if they have the number.


How time flies,master rigger is now panicking of what it knows how to do best.

What is Buhari afraid of? The corrupt Dullard is disgusting. l spit on it/him.

Buhari is afraid of free and fair elections.

Thieves

They wanted to use this bill to set a trap for Buhari.


Fool me once- Allowing Saraki to become the Senate president.
Fool me twice- Signing bills not well spelt out in clear terms

They are mad!! Y haven't they veto d minimum wage issue it's electoral act dia after.. Buhari I support u don't sign

They don't have the number. Apc members won't vote in favour.
I solely l blame NASS. This is the 4th time and the presidency is still noticing certain errors. I'm thinking those errors must be deliberate because I don't know how the NS can't draft an errorless document at the fourth attempt if it's not meant to be intentional

These ppl had four year to amend a document and they blew it. Now it's late

PDP has become the chief town crier of our democracy. I love it

Speak for yourself and your family please. Only looters and their beneficiaries are complaining of hunger.

Illiterate.
NASS vetoes bills, not issues. No wonder the Nepa bill man is the president.

They say Buhari is popular, yet the so called popular candidate is scared of a free and fair election.
Wether he signs or not, we shall send his lifeless fossil back to Daura.

Let us use the one used by PDP for 16 years

See the frustrated cursed and forbidden lazy idiotic Igbos youths above me commenting without reasoning.

The president gave valid reasons for his rejection and can't be vetoed by the NASS.

This is a president with balls and not the otuoke clueless drunkard who was booted out with no balls.

Come February 2019 all your PDP God's and criminals will be retired.

Indeed Igbos are clueless like there master Nnamdi kanu the scanner, criminal and school drop out.

Ndi Ara

That bill would have raised the bar in our electoral system

ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY

In a joint sitting.... PDP can get 2/3rd
