PDP Not Plotting To Postpone Elections- Fani Kayode

The director of media and publicity of the Peoples
Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation, Femi Fani-Kayode has said
the president has no intention of postponing the forthcoming elections, and the
president and his party are fully ready for the elections. He also asked APC to
address more serious issues like what the DSS are pointing at them instead of
dwelling on lies. Below is what Mr Fani said in a statement in Abuja made
available to the press. He actually took APC to the cleaners as usual, lol.

“It is interesting that the APC never came out with these
lies about plans to postpone the election until its cloning and hacking activities
were uncovered by the DSS.

“Rather than address the evidences presented by the DSS such
as a video of 21 hacking tutorials, multiple registrations of individuals and
underage persons including babies and foreigners, possession of temporary and permanent
voter cards, the APC is raising postponement as a red herring, hoping to
distract Nigerians from its nefarious activities.

“Our Campaign Organisation categorically states that our
candidate, President Goodluck Jonathan, and the PDP-led Federal Government have
no intention, whatsoever, to interfere in the workings of the INEC and
therefore dissociates them from the plan, alleged by the APC, to postpone the
February 14, 2015 Presidential Election.

“Indeed, we are eagerly looking forward to that day so that
the ghost of the violence-prone APC with its criminal cloning and hacking
attempts will be laid to rest in a crushing electoral defeat.

“We believe Nigerians are now familiar with the diversionary
tactics of the APC. Before the Ekiti and Osun state gubernatorial elections,
the same APC made all manner of allegations against the PDP, the Independent
National Electoral Commission (INEC) and all the security agencies.

“When the elections held, Nigerians saw firsthand that none
of the allegations made by the APC was true. So shall it be with this new claim
of a purported postponement made by the APC.

“This unfounded and mischievous charge of election
postponement is part of the APC’s nefarious and well-documented attempt to heat
up the polity, lay the groundwork to create disharmony among Nigerians,
discredit the forthcoming elections and wreck havoc once it loses the February
14, 2015 Presidential Election.

“We remind Nigerians that it was the Presidential Candidate
of the APC, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), who once told the world
during a BBC Hausa interview that, ‘If what happened in 2011 should again
happen in 2015, by the grace of God, the dog and the baboon would all be soaked
in blood.’

“Even though the elections have not yet held, Buhari’s words
of incitement have already borne disastrous fruit as evidenced by the recent
violence in Jos, Plateau State, which was clearly spearheaded by his
supporters.

“We condemn the violence and mischievous antics of the APC
in its entirety and call on Nigerians to reject the party of Janjaweed ideology
at the polls.

“We reiterate that the PDP remains committed to implementing
its manifestoes, touching the lives of Nigerians, transforming our nation and
bequeathing a legacy of development to future generation.”
