Firstly, I want to state that our collation centers have all original results from every PU, wards & LGAs in Nigeria, of which the international community is well aware, implying that all the results being announced by the @inecnigeria is incorrect & unacceptable –@UcheSecondus

Secondly, officials of both @MBuhari & the @OfficialAPCNg, working with @inecnigeria officers, have tried to alter the course of history and disenfranchise our people through the cancellation and manipulation of figures for results already announced at PUs – @UcheSecondus

Thirdly, APC’s strategy has indeed been murderous, undignified, and disrespectful of the wishes of the electorate, our people and the international community who have been in solidarity with our nation as we attempt to strengthen our democracy and its institutions.@UcheSecondus

Fourthly, in full view of the watching world, and despite efforts by our great party and its agents to adhere to every laid down provision for the elections, the APC in collusion with INEC have taken aggressive steps, to manipulation & silence our people – @UcheSecondus

I also believe that the arrest of Eng. Buba Galadima, who has been a great symbol of what is courageous about our people goes to show that one man’s ambition is greater than our collective good, and most probably worth the blood of all Nigerians. –@UcheSecondus

In that context, I call for Buba Galadima’s immediate and unconditional release, as well as that of all officials and agents of the PDP, in the Southwest, who were mostly arrested on the eve of the elections where intimidation became the APCs sole election strategy-@UcheSecondus

Despite these provocations and intimidation, I must, in fact, convey to our good people the fact that the PDP is on course to victory and the Presidency; therefore, remain resolute and steadfast, because our party shares in your uncertainty and suffering – @UcheSecondus
— Official PDP Nigeria (@OfficialPDPNig) February 25, 2019
Finally, and once again, we appeal to the leadership of @inecnigeria to remain impartial and not become willing agents to disenfranchise our people and derail our democracy, because the world is watching, and history will indeed pass judgment. –@UcheSecondus
