President of the Senate and Director General of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Council, Bukola Saraki, on Sunday urged Nigerians to vote out the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Sunday.

In a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Yusuph Olaniyonu, Saraki highlighted reasons Nigerians should removed those in power.

“We have all seen how the last four years have gone. It is time for Nigerians across the nation to choose economic growth over poverty.

“Cchoose security over the growing and fast spreading insecurity; and choose competent leadership over leadership that is outdated.
“If you have ever questioned if Nigeria can be better, coming out to vote and bringing your friends and relatives who have PVCs out to vote next Saturday will be your answer.
“It is not enough to tweet about this government or share WhatsApp broadcasts, the time has come for all Nigerians to take their future in their hands and vote for visionary leaders, Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, and the PDP slate of candidates who are promising a Better Nigeria and are ready to make Nigeria work again.

“The more people that come out to vote, the less likely it is for those that want to manipulate the results to do so — its a simple mathematics. It is the numbers of registered voters who failed to come out and vote that the riggers seek to manipulate in inflating votes for a candidate or group of candidates.
“I urge you all, take this election seriously, and together, we can make history together by saving Nigeria’s future,” the Senate President stated.
