THE Presidency on Tuesday accused the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP of being jittery over the orders by President Muhammadu Buhari to security agencies to deal ruthlessly with anybody that attempts to snatch ballot boxes during the forthcoming elections.

The Presidency also reiterated President Buhari’s comment that anyone who dares to snatch ballot boxes during next weekend’s elections will be doing this for the last time, saying it should be seen as a strong message against the long history of savagery associated with elections in the country. Speaking to State House correspondents, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, recalled some past elections in parts of Nigeria, during which innocent voters lost their lives while ballot boxes were being snatched by armed thugs. He said the President had the safety and security of Nigerians uppermost in mind when he made the comment, and should be praised rather than criticized for issuing this stern warning to potential ballot box snatchers. Shehu further expressed concern about those attacking the president’s comment, and their worry over the fate of anyone caught snatching ballot boxes. Acording to him, “This sounds like members of the opposition, specifically the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP who have perfected plans to rig the elections and to snatch ballot boxes. They can tell that President Buhari is not prepared to tolerate their antics this time around, and they are afraid. They have shown their intent.”

The presidential spokesperson noted that no one had anything to fear from the President’s comments if their conscience and intentions were clear. He said, “Let’s just have free and fair elections and no one need worry about anything. “Snatching ballot boxes often entails putting the lives of innocent Nigerians at risk. About 10 years ago, evidence was brought before an election tribunal from one of the states in North Central of the gruesome killing of 26 prospective voters by ballot box snatchers. “Their modus operandi is well known. They storm election venues in commando style, overwhelm the law-enforcement agents and seize ballot boxes leaving a trail of death and injury.” Continuing, he said, “Anyone who dares to put the lives of innocent citizens at risk in their desperation to rig elections must be prepared for the possibility of losing their own lives because our security agents will certainly not stand by, clap for them and watch them kill and maim.”

Yes,their camp is in disarray

Nigerians have really suffered all in the bid to exercise their franchise to vote out this incompetent Buhari government.
But we must not despair. Whatever sacrifices we can make, we will make and posterity will be kind to us for our joy cometh in the morning.













Rochas Okorocha appointed about 2 or 3 family into his government and the whole country nearly crucified him.
Buhari has been quietly appointing lots of his relatives into positions in government, yet nobody seems to notice, let alone attack him.
Is the dullard using jazz to silent Nigerians? I can't help but remove my cap for the babalowo that did this strong jazz for him.
My only fear is that buhari might openly rig himself back to power and use this same strong jazz to silent Nigerians.

These people ehnn!...instead of trying to remedy the disastrous and calamitous statement by the president by means of subtle damage control measures they're busy pointing fingers at pdp.

Abi PDP na APC nightmare ni..

The PDP isn't jittery, those who are scared are those who are chanting war songs in PH rally and those who wants the election staggered so that they can implement the Osun strategy. The People are with the PDP. If the PDP wanted a rigged elections, they wouldn't be advocating for everyone to come out to vote. If you check twitter, a lot of PDP faithfuls are paying for the transportation of those who cannot afford to travel again as a result of the election postpoment. Everyone should come out to vote this Saturday else your space might be used to rig for the " LIFELESS ONE"

If you are a ballot box snatcher then you have an issue with the order. Otherwise why should you be worried if your intentions are clear. The consequence of snatching ballot boxes is you will be ruthlessly dealt with.

... I go fire woooooo

This fools are at it again.

For you to successfully win an election through ballot snatching, you would need to snatch boxes from at least 200 pooling units...

Since the introduction of Card readers and PVCs, ballot snatching has become quite a useless activity. since 2007, all cases of electoral violence in pooling units is still below 200.

We all know that this goes beyond ballot snatching. Buhari wants to bring armed military personnels inside pooling units to intimidate opposition agent.

Any agents that protests would be shot and termed a ballot snatcher. This is APC's new technique in rigging election.
