“Arrest him” video: Punish Gambari, Oshiomhole – PDP chair Secondus to world powers

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) yesterday charged the United Nation (UN), the European Union (EU) and other international bodies to place visa restriction on the Chief of Staff to the President, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari; a former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr. Adams Oshiomhole, and other individuals as punishment for allegedly plotting to truncate democracy and good governance in Nigeria.

PDP National Chairman, Prince Uche Secondus, at a press conference in Abuja also accused APC leaders of plots to use fake police and army to rig the September 19 governorship election in Edo State.

Secondus described Nigeria as a police state, saying that the federal government has put in place measures to muzzle free press and freedom of speech.

He also called on the National Assembly to probe how and why the presidential villa has become a place where plots to destroy democracy is being hatched.

The PDP’s position was informed by the ongoing controversy over a video that has gone viral in which Gambari and Oshiomhole were allegedly plotting how to rig the forthcoming governorship election in Edo State.

In the video, which the presidency has dismissed as fake, Oshiomhole was allegedly telling Gambari to arrest top PDP leaders in Edo State to facilitate APC being victorious in the election.

However, despite the presidency’s clarification and assurances by President Muhammadu Buhari and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to ensure free and fair poll in the state, the PDP called on the international community to deny visas to members of the APC for plotting to endanger democracy and enthrone bad governance.

At the press conference, Secondus, surrounded by all members of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party, said: “We wish to also, draw the attention of the international community to this gross abuse of power to undermine the democratic process by critical staff that should defend it. We demand appropriate sanction of the individuals involved in this anti-democratic act; they should be given visa restrictions to any democratic countries.

“The interest and will of the people of Edo State should be paramount in all decisions and that should guide any action either by the INEC or the government. PDP remains vehemently opposed to any postponement of Edo and Ondo States governorship elections. September 19 and October 10 should be sacrosanct.”

He appealed to Nigerians to declare anybody or group working to truncate the ongoing electoral processes in Edo and Ondo States as enemies of democracy.

According to him, notwithstanding any plot to rig the Edo election, the PDP and its leaders will not allow the Kogi, Kano, Ekiti or Osun scenarios to play out in Edo State.

He said: “Let it be known, and clearly too, that the PDP is standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the people of Edo State to resist Oshiomhole’s fake police and other fake security operatives they are planning to import into Edo for the September 19 election.

“Nothing, and indeed, nothing will by any means whatsoever, be allowed to bend the will of the people in this Edo governorship election.

“We are deeply saddened that under the watch of an elected President Muhammadu Buhari who is a huge beneficiary of democracy, the nation’s highest seat of power is being used for the hatching of plans to undermine democracy.

“The Chief of Staff to the President, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari, is such a strategic staff that when he is involved in any underhand thing, the president cannot free himself from it. The PDP is, therefore, calling on the National Assembly to call for the tape of the video and examine thoroughly its content with a view to acting appropriately.”

Secondus stated that the constitution and the Electoral Act are against any bid to undermine democracy by clamping down on the opposition.

He added that it’s unfortunate that the numerous problems overwhelming the nation is not disturbing the president and his party but how to blackmail and arrest the opposition.

Secondus said: “It’s also in our findings that the several efforts of APC leaders to arm-twist the INEC into falling for their devious move to shift the election. All these anti-democratic moves are all aimed at one thing – creating a constitutional logjam to disrupt the election because they know they cannot win.

“As all these underhand moves are crumbling before their eyes; the discredited former chairman of APC was smuggled into Aso Rock Villa to fine-tune the rigging strategy for Edo.

“The leaked video, which has been confirmed by the presidency, says it all – the plan to arrest and keep away all opposition leaders and clear the way for the rigging machinery of APC to roll through. This development is not only shameful but very unfortunate that the nation’s seat of power housing a democratically elected president has to be used to plan how to inflict harm on democracy.”

Saint PDP

PDP blabing as usual instead of campaigning with Obaseki's achievements if any

For the sake of good governance and quality opposition democracy, I hope smaller sensible parties like AAC and others merge.. because PDP are quite silly to be an opposition





.

They shall be disgraced insha Allah
Foolish Osho and Gambari sule

Oh no!

PDP have dust up their EU and UN cards again.

Like for PDP share for APC

PDP sounding like ipob. Wetin concern UN and EU inside this matter?

No problem.

But the PDP must contextualise what Gambari and Oshiomole discussed to convince the EU or UN to impose the sanctions. And they can petition the ICJ and be ridiculed for watery evidence to make a grave accusation.

Both of them dont really care about us, wise up

Asap.

What sort of stupidity is this. Has EU run to AU to sanction their people with not issuing visas. How did we get here. Evidence of empty opportunist

Ok

Ok

How anyone was able to deduce anything concrete from that 8 seconds video, worthy of EU petition still surprises me.

Cry cry babies full everywhere.


Our politicians are just getting worst and having more boldness.

Nigerians seems to be more concerned on how to live or leave this country instead of charging out politicians on good governance.

Fashola for 2023

PDP....very useless party. Secondus is your chairman so you will always be 2nd.
The same way PDP arrested the opposition during Ekiti elections... useless man, useless set of people.

Oshio is another version of Amaechi in Edo. I said it then if SS failed to clip Amaechi for life Amaechi will clip them for life but instead for them.to yield they started hailling him, given him all kinds of chieftaincy titlles and 2019 general election he unleashed his horror to pls Fulami oligachy and more still loading......

Now its Oshio turn instead for Edolite to be ready and silent him forever they are busy Edo no be Lagos crap and that same devil is formatting evil strategy to unleash his horror by September, Wike survived it in River because 90% of his people are behind him but in Edo No, even monarch already donating cash for Ize-Oshio campaign movement. I pray Edolites won't be shock at last.

Nothing in this life annoys me like apc, buhari, oshio, amaechi, tinubu and okorocha oh God I hate these people with passion.

What is happening in Edo state is a serious matter, I foresee bloodbath if care isn’t taken.
The lives of Nigerians shouldn’t be played with,”.......Pastor Ayodele.

Edo youths,
Use your head wisely.
Keep your lives and the lives of your friends and families safe.
You only live once.

Do not let any politicians use your head as before.

Edolites, vote wisely.
Nuff said.

God bless Edo State.

God bless Nigeria.

Edolites, Be Wise.

Again,

Edolites, vote wisely for the man or woman that will better your lives.

Forget party politics for now.

Our own @ [color=#006600][/color] is that : A better Nigeria all around
is all we want.

Again,
God bless Nigeria

We Rise!

OAUTemitayo:

Don't be a coward, support Obaseki and PDP with your chest and openly.
Either you are with them or against them.
There is nothing like support party politics for now.
Either you are with APC or against APC.
No room for second hand support.
POI is a goal.

Here is your reply below Chief Tayo......

What a useless party!morons

These fools have no regards for Nigeria at all. EU doesn't have your time

Awon werey.. you no tell Wike judges ?

ALL YOU CAN SAY WHEN THE CHIEF OF STAFF TO THE PRESIDENT WAS SEEN ON TAPE DISCUSSING HOW TO DESTROY DEMOCRACY YOU ARE ENJOYING NOW. IF YOU ARE SANE YOU SHOULD JOIN THE CALL FOR INVESTIGATION OF THE CLIP TO ASCERTAIN ITS ORIGINALITY.

Trash
EU, UN, USA, TRUMP, AFRICOM, NATO and all world powers combine can not stop the defeat of Ugly and incompetent Obaseki. It's done already. EDO will soon celebrate its new Governor, Pastor İze Iyamu.

What goes around, comes back around... The Ekiti 2015 scenario came to mind (Federal might/fayose Vs Fayemi) Life has a way of rewarding everyone in its due time. it's turn by turn. PDP are reaping what they sow from the inception of our Democracy. APC will soon reap theirs. Nothing in life is permanent, life and power are transient...

Besides, the EU, USA, and the likes have their hand full of their own problems.
