INEC Server: Atiku Disowns Mass Action Campaigners
Atiku Abubakar has disowned plans for mass action to protest seeming contradictions by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC over the existence of a dedicated server for the compilation of the election results.
A press statement issued by his media adviser, Paul Ibe said the statement allegedly issued by him was a mischief scripted by those aiming to discredit his well known reputation for using the rule of law to fight his causes.
“I wish to emphatically state that such a statement did not emanate from Atiku Abubakar or his privies,” Ibe said.
“It is the work of mischief makers who want to mar his spotless pro-democratic record and lay the groundwork for their threatened actions against him on false charges of being a threat to national security.
“For the avoidance of doubt, Atiku Abubakar believes in the rule of law and in the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. In his almost four decades in politics, he has never taken action or spoken words against democracy and will not start now.
“Atiku Abubakar and his team have confidence in God and thus call on those bent on mischief to have the fear of God and retrace their steps.
“Democracy has come to stay in Nigeria. The culture of fear being created now cannot rein in our democracy. Nigeria and Nigerians have a consistent history of outlasting tyranny and will continue to do so by the grace of God.”
