As market men and women approach with shouts of OLE! OLE!! OLE!!! , they are jittery, nervous and scampering with no where to hide their loot.
By cooking the results of this 2019 Presidential Election, this bunch have brought misfortune of unimaginable proportions upon themselves
The PDP, ATIKU, OBI and the millions of Nigerians who gave victory to ATUKU / OBI today, will settle for nothing less than reclaiming the stolen mandate. And it will not matter how long it takes.
So, relentless pressure must continue to be mounted through all avenues, untill Buhari abdicates the Presidency. Period!. The vote robbers need no breathing space from now till the throne is abdicated as Jameh of Equatorial Guinea before him, did.
MOUNTING EVIDENCE
Today, no one needs to look far to see that the INEC declaration remains the greatest daylight robbery of all time. But the difference this time, is that this criminal gang, who have shown that they are nothing but street thugs, namely - INEC chairman, Buhari, Oshiomole, El Rufai, Amechi, Tinubu have come in direct confrontation with two of the most formidable, technologically, more advanced figures ( Atiku and Obi) than the thieves are, such that Nigeria has never, ever witnessed as candidates during an election, in our march aimed at achieving credible democracy.
The initial step taken by the PDP in conjuction with the ATIKU/ OBI campaign, on behalf of the overwhelming millons of Nigerians who want to see Buhari, in rejecting and repudiating the results which emanated from the kangaroo counting of votes after balloting, during the Presidential voting excercise is a great step in the right direction.
Below are other factors which will drive events in Nigeria in the short and long run until the dust finally settles with ATIKU- OBI sworn in.
1. Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, call him anything, is an accomplished business man with successful companies in Nigeria. He remains an employer with vast international connections.
2. Peter Obi on one hand is a pragmatist who succeeded in the private sector before joining politics. He is an example of what modern day Nigerian politicians ought to emulate. Besides, he remains an Ex-Governor whose record of accomplishment is unsurpased. He is well educated and has deep knowledge and understanding of international organizations and pro-democracy bodies.
3. Atiku and Obi as individuals are wealthy and not the kinds of Nigerian, penniless politicians who can be easily bought or swayed to drop positions which they hold based on their convictons.
FAMILIAR TERRITORY
If anyone thought that the deliberate delay in announcing the result or the staggered roll-outs which followed were based on best practices, think again. There were other sinister motives for each of Buhari's Mamood actions.
First they wanted to create an atmosphere of legitimacy. Second but more important, they wanted to use each down time to disensitize Nigerians with regard to the evil they were perpetrating. Nigerians most time are unwilling to fight against injustice as many other nations who have freed themselves from despotic rules, do.
But regardless of the violations by Buhari and INEC, the shinning points come from precedents.
4. Atiku has a Vice whose past will help guide them as they steer through this difficult terrain.
Peter Obi contested in the Anambra State
governorship election as candidate for the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) party in 2003, but his opponent, Chris Ngige of the People's Democratic Party, was declared winner by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). ... Obi fought and later took back the office for the same position on 17 March 2006.
He succeded in recovering his stolen mandate. A smart, patient unassuming intelligent man, who is never in a hurry.
5. When it comes to Atiku, none of the predictions which the gang of vote robbers made about him, stuck.
First it was about his relationship with Obasanjo never ever going to improve.
Then It was about his chance of getting nominated as flag bearer for the PDP.
Then the lies about him not ever entering the U.S again.
Later, it was that they are robbers, will arrest Atiku upon re-entry into Nigeria from the U S.
All of these ended up as pure fabrications.
Today, ATIKI & OBI have a multitude of followers throughout the world waiting on them to signal which direction they must go as this whole saga is unfolding.
