APC accuses PDP of enlisting Russian hackers to compromise 2019 elections

- The APC accused the PDP of plotting to compromise the 2019 elections

- The party claimed the PDP has enlisted the help of Russina harckers

- It said this is the outcome of the party's Dubai meeting

The All progressives Congress (APC) has raised allegation against the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) accusing the party of enlisting the help of Russian hackers to compromise 2019 elections.

Vanguard reports that Yekini Nabena who is the deputy national publicity secretary of the APC in an interview in Abuja claimed the PDP is working towards compromising the servers of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in next February’s general elections.

Nabena also wondered why the PDP was now against same law that it had used in conducting past elections in the country.

He said what the PDP is doing now is a result of its plan that its perfected during their recent meeting in Dubai with Atiku Abubakar.

He said: “The Act we are using now was created by the PDP. They created a law and they are now afraid to use it. That does not sound right. What the PDP are doing, they are playing out what they designed in Dubai. They started with the labour strike on minimum wage in order to cause problems in the country but it did not work; they brought ASUU strike, it did not work and then they tried to instigate fuel scarcity which also did not work. These were all part of their grand design in Dubai and so the last bid is the Electoral Act. Look at the way they are going about it, saying if the president does not sign it, they will file on to the streets in demonstration. Look at them, at their age. But we are waiting for them.

“Normally if you vote, the Electoral Officer is supposed to count the votes and announce them before transmitting to the collation centre. But now you are telling us that they do not need to announce the votes, that they should just transmit.

"That is all part of their Dubai plan, trying to bring in Russian agents to hack the system. That is their joker. To hack into the system and manipulate The figures before transmitting them. Saraki and all of them went to Russia and perfected the plan with the hackers. So, we all know what they are trying to do…trying to bring in stolen money into the system, but vote buying and money politics won’t work this time around.”

Meanwhile, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has asked Nigerians to be wary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Atiku Abubakar, its presidential candidate, in the weeks leading up to the 2019 elections.

Legit.ng reports that in a statement signed by its national publicity secretary, Lanre Issa-Onilu, APC accused Atiku of not wanting to sign the national peace accord ahead of the 2019 elections.

Atiku signed the accord on Wednesday, December 12, a day after other presidential candidates, including President Muhammadu Buhari, signed it in Abuja.

His absence was blamed on a “communication lapse” between the national peace committee, organisers of the accord, and the PDP national secretariat.

But in a statement, the APC said the excuse given is “hogwash” as the PDP and its candidate were invited at the same time as other political parties and their candidates.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
