Buba Galadima, a former Ally of President Muhammadu Buhari, has challenged him to swear with the Qur’an, that he did not rig the 2019 Presidential election, Post Nigeria reports.
Galadima, who spoke in an interview, disclosed that Atiku Abubakar, Presidential Candidate of the PDP, won the election, but it was allegedly rigged by the All Progressives Congress, APC, and the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
He described the election as an embarrassment, while challenging the President and the APC Leaders, to swear with the holy books, to prove that Buhari won.
“The election was a national embarrassment. It was far from being free and fair. Not only that, it was clear to everybody that INEC, the Military, and the Police, all colluded to work for APC”, Galadima said.
“The Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, won the Presidential election, but INEC chose to declare President Muhammadu Buhari the winner. The whole world knows that Atiku defeated Buhari hands down, but the election was heavily rigged in Buhari’s favour.
“I boldly challenge Buhari and other APC Leaders, to swear with the Holy Quran and the Bible, if they were sure that Buhari won that election. If they are sure that Buhari defeated Atiku, Buhari, APC Leaders should take up my challenge. I am throwing this challenge openly, I am making it public, and I am waiting for any of them who is bold and sure of himself, to take up this challenge.
“INEC was only independent in name during the elections, as it surrendered its mandate to the whims and caprices of Buhari and APC. With the way it conducted the election, INEC will enter the Guinness Book of Records, as having organised the worst election in Nigeria’s history.”
Galadima further said that the conduct of the electoral process, is proof that Buhari is not fighting corruption. He revealed that rigging of elections amounts to corruption, and the “APC is a nest of corrupt elements”.
“What all these clearly show again, is that Buhari is not fighting corruption. Corruption is not only about stealing money. There are other things that you do that amount to corruption. Rigging election is another form of corruption”, he said.
“All APC Leaders including Buhari, their hands are not clean over these elections. Then, if you know that somebody is corrupt and you protect such a person, that means that you are also corrupt.”
