My votes were stolen, diverted, suppressed - Moghalu blows hot over 2019 presidential polls

- YPP presidential candidate in the 2019 polls, Prof Kingsley Moghalu, has alleged that votes meant for his party were stolen, diverted and suppressed

- According to the presidential candidate, the numbers attributed to his party in the final count was a joke

- Moghalu, however, stressed that he wasn’t claiming to have won the election or been rigged out

Professor Kingsley Moghalu, the presidential candidate of the Young Progressive Party (YPP), has reacted to the outcome of the 2019 elections, alleging that votes meant for his party were stolen, diverted and suppressed.

Moghalu made the allegation on Friday, April 12 while appearing on a Channels TV programme, Politics Today.

Legit.ng gathers that the presidential candidate said he was disappointed at the result of the 2019 polls.

He said: “I know for a fact that our votes were stolen, our votes were diverted, our votes were suppressed. For this reason, the numbers attributed to the YPP for example as the final count was a joke.”

Moghalu said the final result which saw President Muhammadu Buhari gaining a second term in office, was a clear testament that “Nigerians have made a choice with the status quo.”

When asked if he was rigged out of the election, Moghalu stressed: “I am not claiming that I won the election and was rigged out. I want to be very clear.”

The former CBN deputy governor, however, called for “fundamental reform” of the nation’s electoral system; urging the country to work hard to deepen her democratic process ahead of the 2023 polls.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
