According to Wike, “I don’t think this administration will willingly accept defeat. They should emulate former President Jonathan, who lost elections and accepted the outcome. There was no litigation. He went back home and did not generate crisis.”
Wike said Rivers people will not fold their hands and allow the APC Federal Government unleash violence and rig the elections.
He
“regretted that the Federal Government has caged the judiciary, making
it difficult to determine electoral disputes in court,” arguing that the
conduct of credible elections rest with security agencies and INEC,
adding that once the two agencies act within the law, the polls will be
credible.
Responding, former Minister of Foreign Affairs and
Founder of Savannah Centre Council on Peaceful and Violence Free in
Nigeria, Professor Ibrahim Gambari, urged stake-holders to work towards
peaceful and credible polls.
