Postponement of election won’t stop Buhari’s victory – PCB

 

The Pro-active Coalition for Buhari (PCB), has resolved to work for the reelection of President Muhammadu Buhari despite the controversy trailing the postponement of the general elections.

The group said, although, it received the news of the postponement in shock and disbelief despite its preparedness for the polls, but it is determined to ensure President gets his return ticket.

Patience Ekoh, Publicity Secretary of the group, said although, they welcome and respect the decision of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), but they are nonetheless committed to coming out in numbers to overwhelmingly vote for President Muhammadu Buhari on 23 February 2019.

He said, “We consequently pledge to abide by the decision of INEC to ensure that every vote counts and the credibility of the poll are not eroded by false prophets who want to see Nigeria fail or return power to those who squandered our commonwealth in times past.

“Our unalloyed commitment to the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari is as a result of his great efforts in steering the ship of Nigeria to greatness as exemplified in the past three years he has been on the saddle of leadership.

“The commitment of President Muhammadu Buhari to the security of the citizenry despite politically sponsored killings by the opposition is one reason Nigerians will vote for the President overwhelmingly in the next few days.

“President Muhammadu Buhari has indeed proved to Nigeria and Nigerians that a better future lies ahead and that it is possible for Nigeria to be great again despite the magnitude of challenges he inherited from previous administrations.

“We consequently charge the Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) to remain impartial and conduct all their affairs with National Interest.

“We also wish to inform staffers of INEC of the need to be of good behaviour during the elections and to remind them that anyone who commits electoral crimes against the state would be prosecuted accordingly.

“The Buhari Support Coalition is undaunted in its resolve to vote overwhelmingly for President Muhammadu Buhari and put to shame those that have ganged up against him for no justifiable reasons.

“With this postponement, we are stronger and better. We are ever ready to vote regardless of the date and time of the elections.

“The Buhari Support Coalition also wishes to advise those that are trying to ferment trouble in the polity to desist from such as the Buhari Support Coalition would not take lightly any threat to our nascent democracy.

The Buhari Support Coalition also wishes to remind saboteurs that this is not the place to carry out their nefarious activities as President Muhammadu Buhari has done everything to win the confidence of Nigerians and to be re-elected at the polls.”
