CNPP PRESS STATEMENT - 20 November 2013

Conference of Nigerian Political Parties {CNPP} is alarmed over Governor Peter Obi’s penchant for ethnic card; which portends danger for our fledgling democracy.

Penultimate day, it was the issue of Yorubas deporting Igbos from Lagos, forgetting that he deported non-indigenes in 2009, yesterday it was an Hausa man, in this instance Malam Nasiru Elrufai, who came to stop his rigging plan and today the ethnic card allegation is that it was Osun State women who demonstrated at Awka against the sham Anambra State governorship election.

For the avoidance of doubt the women who demonstrated are aggrieved and courageous bonafide Anambra women whom Professor Attahiru Jega deliberately not only disenfranchised but stole their mandate. The video clips are still there, we therefore challenge Governor Obi to publicly point out Osun women in the video pictures. There is a limit to the endurance for a people whose mandate were stolen.

On the House Arrest of Malam Nasiru Elrufai, Governor Obi proclaimed, ‘As an APGA Chieftain, I won’t go to Katsina, ….if I ve my way I will bundle him out’. He forget that Elrufai’s freedom of movement is guaranteed by the 1999 Constitution Federal Republic of Nigeria, which he as governor swore to protect.

Governor Obi instead of the ethnic card, should do an introspection, asking himself, why the desperation in getting Ndi Anambra to seamlessly elect the candidate of my party, after 7 years of serving my people? Why is Senator Ngige an issue out of 23 candidates?

CNPP once more call for total cancellation of the election, and resignation of Professor Jega for complicity as events have shown the invincible hand of President Goodluck Jonathan in the sham election.

Otherwise how can his party the PDP abandon its candidate, Comrade Tony Nwoye and support APGA’s Pyrric victory in the face of gross irregularities and substantial evidences that tainted the election?

Throwback:





Unfortunately for you, history is a dustbin that is never emptied.


We will ensure that those who now claim to be patriots, nationalists and democrats, are well vetted to reveal their[b]hypocritical past.[/b]

BeautifulMind2:



Obi is too clean to rubbish, so this is what you can dig

afroniger:
These sort of careless statements expose Peter Obi as a leader lacking in statesmanship. Political leaders of his calibre in a multiethnic society like ours are expected to be more guarded in their utterances in case of situations like this.

SarkinYarki:
Throwback you are more than such satanic practice ..respect yourself..haba how can you be stirring tribal discord all because because you want to perpetuate an inept incoherent dullard tyrant who has nothing to offer any Nigerian

Throwback:
I don't know why anyone should be angry that we are vetting those who want to rule us.


Do you want to make the same mistakes over and over, while Sahara Reporters and Premium Times do the actual vetting with information that was already available for public dissection and discourse?

Anyone who wants to contest, must be ready to be vetted with their own past actions and opinion.

Why did Peter Obi put El Rufai on house arrest during the regime of the hero of democracy?

Why was same El Rufai and other APC politicians prevented from entering Ekiti in 2014, when Fayose brought in all manner of PDP ministers and military and DSS support.

How does a despot become a hero of democracy?

If Peter Obi could do such in Anambra, then we do not expect him to play the impartial role played by Prof. Yemi Osinbajo as Acting President, during the DSS siege of the National Assembly.

What evidence do you have that Peter Obi placed the midget on house arrest?


I guess you weren't told the part $750k was found on him and how he lied to the police he is an election observer whereas his mission was to rig.


Una go dey alright lass lass

Throwback:



Oby Ezekwesili has no such baggage.
She must be president now, because the salvation of Nigeria is decades past due. No time to wait for failures to take turns achieving nothing.

I rather have Oby Ezekwesili as President, than have any Southerner as Vice President.

Flatheadpig:


Obi is a flatheaded bigot pig from potopoto Republic

kiss the truth

MajorJeffery:
Like someone earlier said, please bring up Atiku and Peter Obi mistakes so we can forgive them all at once.
But as for 2019, Buhari is heading to Daura to rest, the old man needs it.
