2019: APC can only retain power by rigging- Adeyeye

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has taken another swipe at the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) saying the party can only retain power in 2019 by rigging the votes of the electorate.

PDP National Publicity Secretary, Dayo Adeyeye The party also berated the conduct of elections in the more than two years of President Muhammadu Buhari administration, stressing that the inconclusive nature of some of the elections portend danger for 2019.

In an exclusive chat with Vanguard, National Publicity Secretary of the party, Prince Dayo Adeyeye urged Nigerians to be vigilant, stating that on the bases of performance, the APC will not retain power in the next general election.

“The only way they can retain power in 2019 is by rigging and that is why we are enjoining Nigerians to be on their guard.

“We have seen that most of the elections conducted by the Buhari administration were inconclusive or marked with lots of irregularities,” he said, adding that come 2019, there are reasons to believe the elections would not be credible.

“There is no assurance that these people will deliver free and fair elections and that may sound the death knell for our democracy,” he warned.
