National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Prince Uche Secondus has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of directing eight governors to stop lawmakers from vetoing the Electoral Act rejected by President Muhammadu Buhari. The National Chairman of the PDP in a statement on Wednesday by his media aide, Ike Abonyi, said the party will reject the move,insisting the will of Nigerians must be done.
Secondus said: “Those who are moving from door to door, our governors, ministers, spending the people’s money; are they God?“You are seeing the confusion in the APC today. They are blaming the IGP and the IGP is blaming them. One arm of the security is blaming the other.“I watched on the television where they said government vetoed the Electoral Act because it infringed on the right of INEC to conduct elections.
Have you ever heard this before? Who is INEC? Is INEC above the law? Is it not the National Assembly that make laws that govern INEC? Why are they afraid of the amendment? We want to assure Nigerians that the APC government cannot rig this election.“Today, we have several Presidents.
That is why the security chiefs can disobey because they don’t know which one to obey.”
