Opinion: Call on the AG of the Federation to arrest, prosecute and commit to jail Dr Uthman Ajidagba. By Bunmi Olusona
We believe that the PDP led government of Kwara State blatantly committed serious electoral fraud using the ever willing hands of the brazenly corrupt Uthman Ajidagba during the local government election rerun in Offa on August 31, 2013.
Dr. Uthman Ajidagba by this infamous act has created a breach of public peace. The outcome of the fake election results declared in favour of his principal has led to series of daily protests all over Kwara State by members of the public who feels shortchanged. Offa has remained tense and public peace is under threat. We in the APC believe that Ajidagba deserves to be arrested, prosecuted and jailed for putting Kwara on the edge for the followings;-
1) Ajidagba falsely declared PDP Chairmanship and Councillorship candidates winner when it won only one Ward. The collated result of each of the 12 wards of the council showed that APC won in 11 wards while PDP won in one.
2) The evidence before the world is that Mr. Afolabi O. Jimoh, a PDP councillorship candidate, in a rare show of integrity and piousness has disowned victory that Dr Ajidagba wrongly awarded him, thereby rendering the entire process a nullity.
3) Ajidagba illegally performed the role of a returning officer when he was not assigned to do so.
4) Ajidagba unlawfully announced the fake election results on Kwara radio when the results ought to have been announced at Offa where the rerun election held.
5) Ajidagba committed electoral infraction by announcing a result of over 56.000 voters exceeding the total voting strength of Offa people by 13,000. There is 500 ballot papers per polling unit. There are 86 polling units in Offa which equals to 43,000.
We therefore call for the immediate dissolution of KWSIEC as presently constituted. Kwara APC has lost confidence in its ability to perform its statutory duty of conducting a free, fair and credible election.
Bukola Saraki and APC.
Bukola Saraki who is talking of injustice under Bamanga Tukur leadership is himself a symbol of all forms of injustices, manipulation and corruption. Bukola is more of a liability than blessing here in Kwara, hence we advice leaders of APC to avoid him like a plaque, if he comes, more people are likely to leave the Party because he is the reason why thousands are leaving PDP to join APC in Kwara. We reject a situation where the entire Kwara PDP rigging machinery is brought into our great Party of change.
Kwara State Police Command Commended.
We want to appreciate the role Kwara State Police command under its Commissioner, Mr Agboola Oshodi-Glover has played during the rerun election and during the mass protests of aggrieved APC members. All through the crises, the force has stood by the people. We salute their professionalism and competence.
Rev. Bunmi Olusona APC Chieftain. Kwara State.
