Political commentator, Dr. Femi Aribisala, says he stands by his words that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, rigged the presidential election in favour of the APC candidate, Muhammad Buhari. In an interview with Vanguard Newspaper, he also said APC co-founder, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is a corrupt man who depends on the huge resources of Lagos for survival.“But the question is: Where did the decline of 10 million come from? I discovered that it came disproportionately in certain areas than it did in others. And to some extent, if you look at the PVC distribution, you can project the election. It is because Buhari could campaign in the South, but the North did not permit same kind of liberty for the president.
“The president was stoned in Buachi and he was threatened. By the time the pattern of PVC distribution became very known even in war-torn states, it was easy to know that it had been front-loaded. When you then analyze the election result itself, you will discover that some places just had an incredible suppression of voters in spite of high level of interest.
“Some people had an incredible number of voters. And I am still interested in why more people voted in the governorship election in Katsina than the presidential election.
On his hatred for Tinubu, the columnist wonder why anybody will be a fan of Bola Tinubu especially Lagos residents.“This godfather business is undemocratic. Let people choose their leaders. One person cannot sit somewhere and decide what is best for everybody. I don’t believe that elections are free and fair in Lagos. I do not believe that Jimi Agbaje lost this election. It was APC’s manipulation that brought out the governorship election result. That is my own opinion”
