The Coalition of United Political Parties, CUPP, has
alleged that the Chief of Army Staff, Tukur
Buratai, was plotting to return Nigeria to
military rule.

CUPP made the allegation while reacting to the
alleged activities of soldiers during the Saturday
governorship and state House of Assembly
elections in Rivers.

CUPP claimed that the action of the military was
tantamount to treasonable felony and called on
all lovers of democracy to resist it.

The statement reads: “The Coalition of United
Political Parties has reviewed the performance
of the Nigerian military in the just -concluded
governorship election in some parts of the
country and has come to the conclusion that
the Chief of Army Staff , Tukur Buratai, is nursing a secret agenda to return the country
to a military rule .

“We make bold to say that Buratai’s brazen use
of armed soldiers to attack officials of the
Independent National Electoral Commission and
upturn electoral process were testing grounds
for his plot to truncate Nigeria ’s democracy.

“We hereby raise the alarm loud enough for all
lovers of democracy to hear that an electoral
war is looming in states like Rivers over the
desperate moves by the Nigerian Army and the
All Progressives Congress to announce fake
governorship election results in Army Barracks in favour of an unknown and non–existing
party called AAC.

“We condemn in unequivocal terms President
Muhammadu Buhari and his Chief of Army Staff
over this reckless overthrow of electoral
process in Rivers State by the APC thugs and
security agents.

“We hereby say without mincing words that
the undemocratic activities of the military and
other security agencies in Rivers State are
tantamount to treasonable felony and should be
viewed and treated that way.

“This is an assault on democratic institutions in
the country and should be resisted and
condemned by all lovers of democracy within
and outside the country.”
