IBADAN, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – Former President of Nigeria, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, has written a letter to President Muhammadu Buhari alleging that the just concluded Presidential and National Assembly elections failed integrity test and as such, the election must be cancelled.
According to the ex-president, the elections were grossly manipulated and results uploaded without due process.
Obasanjo in the letter he personally signed on Monday added that some INEC officials had collected “blood money” while noting that the Bimodal Voters Accreditation System and servers had “been manipulated or rendered inactive.”
The former president in the release titled, “An appeal for caution and rectification”, particularly asked the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Prof Mahmood Yakubu, to save Nigeria from the looming danger and disaster waiting to happen.
The former president noted that none of the president candidates is a saint, but when compared on the knowledge, discipline and what they can offer, Obi has an edge.
Obasanjo’s letter is coming barely few hours after the party agents staged a walkout.
He told President Muhammadu Buhari that “tension is building up and please let all elections that do not pass the credibility and transparency test be cancelled and be brought back to areas where elections were disrupted for next Saturday, 4 March, 2023, and BVAS and Server officials be changed.”
