Presidential election, grand theft of people’s will – Atiku
The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party , former Vice – President Atiku Abubakar , has called the just concluded presidential elections a grand theft of the will of Nigerians.
Abubakar , who spoke during a World Press Conference at the Shehu Musa Yar ’ Adua Centre in Abuja, on Wednesday , noted that democracy was a government of the people by the people only when the people ’ s choice prevailed .
He said , “ That did not happen on Saturday, February 23 , 2019 . On election day , we saw the implementation of grand theft of the people ’ s will .
“ In Akwa Ibom , for instance , the results showed a statistical impossibility of a 62 per cent drop in voter numbers from the 2015 elections , even where voter registration and PVC collection rates were much higher than in 2015 . This is where voter suppression took place .
“ Our party made these observations and complaints before the elections that there were plans to implement voter suppression on PDP or opposition strongholds and voter increase in APC strongholds . ”
