Please register, let us remove Buhari and his APC - PDP begs Nigerians

The PDP says it will unseat the ruling APC come 2019

According to the PDP, this can only be done with the co-operation of the people

The opposition party has urged Nigerians to register and join the course to unseat APC

Nigerians have been enjoined by the Senator Ahmed Makarfi-led National Caretaker Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party to come out and register in the forthcoming continuous voters registration.

The factional group said it would afford them opportunity to throw out the ruling All Progressives Congress from power in 2019.

The group also urged the management of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), to maintain neutrality during the exercise.

According to INEC the exercise is to commence on Thursday, April 27.

The spokesperson for the caretaker committee, Prince Dayo Adeyeye, who stated these in a statement in Abuja on Wednesday, said Nigerians were already tired of the APC failed leadership style.

According to him, “We want to inform Nigerians that this is an opportunity for those who are suffering and undergoing the suffocating hardship, poverty, hunger, comatose economy, insecurity, crass ineptitude, gagging of the press and opposition leaders and members, and more atrocities; to get registered in order to vote out this none performing APC-led Administration at all levels.

“We enjoin INEC to remain neutral, independent and unbiased and allow all potential voters in the 774 local government areas in the Country irrespective of their political leaning, gender, tribe or religion to participate in the forthcoming Continous Voters Registration Exercise.


Former president Jonathan has said that Buhari's style of fighting corruption is faulty and not progressive
“We insist that INEC must avoid a repeat of the 2014 episode where majority of Nigerians were disenfranchised.

“The Commission should allow the distribution of Permanent Voters Card evenly to all zones of the Federation.”

Adeyeye said the revolution for what he described as a ‘genuine change’ has started.


In an earlier report by NAIJ.com, former president, Goodluck Jonathan, has faulted President Muhammadu Buhari’s style of fighting corruption, saying it forces people to go into exile for political reasons.

Jonathan also said that his family is being hounded by the Buhari administration.

The former president, made his feelings known in a book, “Against The Run of Play”, written by the chairman of This Day editorial board, Mr. Olusegun Adeniyi, The Nation reports.

He said if every president decides to go in to dismantle what his predecessor did, society will never make progress.

In reply to GEJ's assertions, the presidency said: "Buhari is not in anyway harassing the former president family."

The presidency argued that the present government is only allows the law to take its natural course.

Presidential spokesman,. Femi Adesina noted that: "The Presidency is constrained to respond to the banner headline story in a national newspaper of Wednesday, April 26, entitled: BUHARI'S GOVT HARASSING MY FAMILY, SAYS JONATHAN.

"The paper said former President Goodluck Jonathan made the allegation in a new book, "Against The Run of Play", written by the Chairman of ThisDay Editorial Board, Mr. Olusegun Adeniyi.

"The former president also reportedly disagreed with the style being used by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari in fighting corruption.

"We make bold to state unequivocally that President Buhari harasses nobody; he merely allows the law to take its course.

"For the umpteenth time, we say that anybody without skeleton in his or her cupboard, has nothing to fear about the bared fangs of the anti-corruption initiative. "Fear belongs only to those who have abused trust while in office."
