Army’s Show Of Force: A Smokescreen For Election Rigging For The APC - PDP by TonyeBarcanista(m): 3:59pm On Mar 03, 2019 |
Press Release The recent show of force and subsequent declaration of 10 “local Government areas as flash points by the Nigerian army is a veiled rigging plan for the APC. This plan we have learnt was hatched after the failure of the army to effectively intervene at the Ikot Ekpene collation center to save the Warsaw general and failed Senator, Godswill Akpabio. This announcement is therefore a smokescreen to aid the Army high command to deploy military personnel to aid in the hijack of election materials in favour of the APC. As a party we are at a loss as to the foundation or basis for the declaration of those areas as flashpoints. It is common knowledge that no casualty was recorded in the last elections in Akwa Ibom state, unlike other states where scores of people were killed and maimed. We will like to remind the military that their primary duty is the protection of the territorial sovereignty of our country and not to take over civil policing, except in extreme circumstances (which elections do not fall within). We hereby totally reject the proposed militarization of our elections and refer them to the judgment in the case instituted by President Muhammadu Buhari, who then was candidate of the APC in 2015 on the role of the military in elections. We again call on the Chief of Defence staff, Chief of Army Staff, Chief of Army Operations and the entire Army High command to direct the GOC 6 Division to immediately withdraw the over 30 soldiers attached to Obong Nsima Ekere, the 15 soldiers attached to Chief Godswill Akpabio and the 8 soldiers attached to Senator Ita Enang. As an indication of complicity between the Army and the APC currently in operation, it was the APC Governorship candidate who posted the news, even before the Army authorities pronounced it. The APC in Akwa Ibom has been boasting lately that, what the police under the ignoble watch of AIG Kimo could not do, the Army will do. Our obvious reply is found in the scriptural proclamation, “who is he that says a thing and it comes to pass, when the Lord has not commanded”. We plead with the army to desist from partisan politics and to remain professional in line with their Rules of Engagement, as this is the only guarantee for a thriving democracy. Superior officers should not become subject to politicians in expectation for favourable postings and appointments. Finally, to the soldiers who are preparing to be deployed, we advice them to brace up to meet with the divine army of God which will be on duty on that day to guide His people and protect them from harm. Our party like always will trust in the name of the Lord our God, who is able to do all things, while the opposition will as usual, put their hopes on their horses, chariots and soldiers(Federal Might). We encourage all Akwa Ibom people to head out enmasse to their polling units and vote massively for the sustenance of the prevailing peace, the continuation of the prosperity and the comprehensive development that the Udom Emmanuel administration represents.

TonyeBarcanista: We will all be alright bro. Politics aside. The economic fundamentals (rising GDP, robust reserves, import substitution, export focus, increasingly diversified economy) indicate so, trust me. I assure you that by 2021 our exchange and inflation rates would be much better and the common man will finally smile. Nigeria will work. It is really the major reason I supported PMB despite all the nauseating insecurity which tempted me otherwise. 2 Likes 1 Share |

TonyeBarcanista: Yeah returned last year. Economic recovery is not an overnight affair, and the effects of some of the major policy changes that will expand it - Dangote's refinery ending daily dollar bleed to petrol importation creating unnecessary demand for USD thus increasing exchange rate, and increased balance of trade through manufacturing and export focus for instance, will have been manifest by then. The agricultural value chain is also expected to have grown and evolved with the current efforts. 3 Likes |

Using the military and thugs to assault our little gains of democracy is an injustice against the will of the people. This very injustice is a threat to justice anywhere in the world. Are there no longer youngmen with burning honour and pride left in the military? They should arise now or forever keep quite. 1 Like 1 Share |
