•Says anarchists’ day of reckoning coming
In spite of the festering violence on the facilities of the Independent National Electoral Commission in some parts of the country, electoral activities will on unhindered.
This was the assurance by President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday after receiving the INEC delegation which was led but its Chairman Prof Mahmood Yakubu.
The President who spoke after he received briefing from Chairman of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof Mahmood Yakubu, on series of attacks on facilities of the electoral body round the country, issued a stern warning to those bent on destroying the country through promoting insurrection, and burning down critical national assets.
“A rude shock awaits them, and very soon too,” he said.
In his words: “I receive daily security reports on the attacks, and it is very clear that those behind them want this administration to fail,” President Buhari said. “Insecurity in Nigeria is now mentioned all over the world. All the people who want power, whoever they are, you wonder what they really want. Whoever wants the destruction of the system will soon have the shock of their lives. We’ve given them enough time.”
President Buhari recalled that he visited all the 36 states of the country before the 2019 election, “and majority of the people believed me, and the election proved it.” He promised to continue leading the country in accordance with Constitutional provisions.
He said those misbehaving in certain parts of the country were obviously too young to know what transpired during the civil war
