ALTHOUGH the 2019 general elections have come and gone, the jury is still out on the question of whether the entire process was credible based on how those assigned different roles by law and the relevant authorities conducted themselves. On the dock are the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC; the different political parties that took part in the elections, the security agencies, including the Police, the military and others.

Yesterday’s court decision stopping the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC from going ahead with further collation of the results of the Bauchi State governorship election of March 9 was a last ditch effort by the incumbent governor to hold on to power. It also showed to limit to which the Muhammadu Buhari phenomenon could go in holding someone in power.

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has said Nigerians will treat All Progressives Congress, APC, thugs dressed in military uniform to assist it to rig the March 23 supplementary elections, as fake soldiers.

Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon Yakubu Dogara, has said that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) was setting a dangerous and evil precedence in the political history of Nigeria under the watch of Professor Mammod Yakubu.

ABUJA: The ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, has taken a swipe at the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, over claims that the latter’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar defeated President Muhammadu Buhari with over 1.6 million votes in the last Presidential Elections.
