It is really going to be hot this period as a result of the election but we are praying for a save and smooth run as we approach February.
Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has sounded a note
of warning to the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its presidential
candidate, Muhammadu Buhari over unprovoked attacks on the campaign train of
President Goodluck Jonathan in some parts of the north.
The governor said; "We will no longer tolerate any
orhestrated attack on Pesident Jonathan and supporters of the Peoples
Democratic Party anywhere in the country."
Governor Fayose , who spoke through
his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka,
said President Jonathan's humility and silence of must not be taken for
granted.
He said Buhari should not allow
desperation for power to lead him into throwing the north into another orgy of
electoral violence as he did when he lost the 2011 presidential election.
Governor Fayose said; "Having
signed a pact to maintain peace before, during and after the elections, it was
expected that Buhari would talk to his blood thirsty supporters to let peace
reign.
"However, the orchestrated
attacks on the campaign train of the president in Katsina and Bauchi States
have shown that APC is not a party of peace and we are warning strongly that
they must not put Nigeria on the spot.
"Most importantly, Buhari and
his APC should tell us in plain language if what they want is to dismember this
country, because nobody has monopoly of violence.
"They must stop taking the
gentility and civility of President Jonathan as weakness because an attack on
the President of a nation is an attack on the country and Buhari should know
that he will never be President of Nigeria by intimidation and
blood-letting.
"The
APC candidate should therefore talk to his blood - thirsty supporters in the
North to stop attacking the president, else they risk reprisal attacks from
Nigerians in other parts of the country."
