2019 elections: Senator Ningi alleges security operatives now bear APC marks


Senator Abdul Ningi has alleged that some security agencies in Nigeria now bear the marks of the All Progressives Congress in their desperation to ensure that the ruling party sustains power ahead of the general elections.

Besides, Ningi warned that the opposition will resist any security attempt to disenfranchise Nigerians from voting candidates of their choice during the elections.

The senator declared this in a remark during PDP governorship/National Assembly campaign rally on Saturday in Bununu, Bauchi state.

He berated the security operatives for already taking sides with the APC, especially in relation to Osun, Ekiti states elections and the by-elections held in Bauchi and Katsina states.

” By this mob action of security agencies, we warn them to steer clear of politics with an option to surrender their uniforms and join the bandwagon APC. However, the opposition will resist security attempt to rob voters of their candidates,” said Ningi.

According to the senator, Nigeria is more divided under President Buhari based on ethno-religious difference with a resultant consequences of herdsmen/farmers clashes.

Ningi regretted that the north east region is still under the jaws of insurgents while victims are left on their own without palliative measures.

” FG deliberately declined to establish the northeast development commission yet claimed to bring succour to the victims of insurgents in the region and now are coming to deceive you again,” Ningi cautioned.

The senator had warned the electoral body, APC and security agencies against any move of rigging election, saying it will be vehemently resisted.

” Allow Nigerians to vote their preferred leaders who will provide credible leadership that will restore the past glory devoid of any difference,” declared Ningi.
