Mr. Atiku Abubakar, the Presidential candidate of the People Democratic Party (PDP) has said the nightmare regime of President Muhammadu Buhari is grinding to an end as initial indications from the PDPs Simultaneous Vote Count shows that a PDP victory is assured.
Atiku said this in a statement issued in Abuja on Sunday by his Special Assistant On Public Communication, Mr. Phrank Shaibu, thanking Nigerians for turning out to vote for him in their millions.
The former vice president said with the PDP’s high tech, cloud-based SVC system, which is able to collate in real-time the results from the 176,000 voting points across the nation, he could boldly assure his supporters that victory was at hand.
He urged Nigerians to take solace in the fact that very soon the living nightmare of the last four years will come to an end so that together we will get Nigeria working again.
Atiku however asked Nigerians to be vigilant in the next 48 hours to prevent the majority votes recorded at the polling units being disrupted by force by the APC at the collation centres.
He said, “With strong shares of the vote in South-South, South-East as well as an increased share in South-West and North-Central, are very pleased with the progress the PDP has made. We look forward to sharing some exciting news in other parts of the country very soon, which will confound all the armchair pundits.”
“I am familiar with how brazen and the complete lack of shame the APC can exhibit, but even I was shocked to witness just how low they went last night by accusing the PDP of ‘recruiting armed thugs’ to do just that. Why would we want to do that when we are winning?”
“Furthermore I would like to say how proud I was of the PDP supporters who conducted themselves so peacefully despite the significant provocations and threats of violence, removal and burning of ballot boxes and the likes.
“General Buhari you have promised our people and the world that you would conduct ‘free, fair and credible elections’ so please call off the wilder elements within your party and deliver on your promise.”
