APC Sympathizes With Atiku For Slipping Into Post-Election Hallucination

National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu

The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has expressed sympathy to the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar and the party itself for slipping into what it called post-election depression and hallucination.

The ruling APC, which reacted to the claims by the PDP and Atiku that the Presidential candidate, Atiku defeated President Muhammadu Buhari with over 1.6 million votes in the last Presidential elections, said it has watched in disbelief and utter amusement how the PDP and its Presidential Candidate “have engaged in series of circus shows to cheer up their crestfallen and disillusioned members.

“While the APC is not oblivious of the PDP’s antics to discredit the credible presidential electoral process, acknowledged by local and international observers, we sympathise with Atiku for the crushing defeat handed him by President Buhari through the votes of Nigerians.”

In a statement today, Wednesday by its spokesman, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, APC said that judging by Atiku and PDP’s recent utterances and actions: “it is now clear that they have slipped into severe depression and post-election defeat hallucination that have left many Nigerians questioning their current state of mind.

“After weeks of dilly-dallying, the PDP has woken up to the stark reality of its electoral defeat and decided to follow the constitutional path of filing a petition at the election tribunal. “However, of all the prayers of Atiku before the Election Tribunal, which are at best hollow, the most ridiculous is his claim that the server of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) indicated he ‘won’ the Presidential Election by 1.6 million votes.

“A few questions would suffice: Is this phantom figure of 1.6 million votes Dubai-invented? “Was the result sold to Atiku by his numerous marabouts, who we understand, had assured him that the last election was a done deal for him?

“Most importantly, we note Atiku’s consistent reference to the “INEC server” as if he is the custodian of that platform. Indeed, Atiku’s constant reference to the INEC server should raise concerns as it is becoming apparent that he and the PDP are up for some dastard activities that are targeted at jeopardizing the INEC database and internal storage system.

“We recall the widespread reported cases of several programmed card readers that were retrieved from some PDP agents and their failed attempt to hack the INEC database in the lead up to the then postponed presidential election.

“We remind the Atiku and PDP that Nigerians saw through the devious schemes aimed at thwarting their will. Consequently, majority of the voters handed them a harsh verdict — that verdict remains sacrosanct.

“We call on the INEC and the security agencies to be on red alert to ensure that Atiku and the other desperate characters in the PDP are not able to execute their evil plans.”
