.Want US to revoke visas of 15 RECs

Fresh protests on Thursday rocked the nation’s capital, Abuja over the just concluded elections, with protesters kicking against the May 29 inauguration of the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and instead demanding the invocation of an Interim National Government ING.

Asking Presidential Muhammadu Buhari to put the ING in place before he leaves office on May 29, the angry Nigerians who protested under the aegis of the National Youth League for the Defence of Democracy NYLDD also demanded the immediate sack and arrest of the Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu by the State Security Services SSS.

Armed with various placards with different inscriptions, they also asked several foreign embassies in Nigeria to immediately revoke the visas of 15 INEC Resident Electoral Commissioners RECs.

The RECs they want to be sanctioned are those of Lagos, Rivers, Borno, Zamfara, Niger, Jigawa, Kano and Imo. Others are Ebonyi, Ekiti, Ogun, Oyo, Cross River, Katsina and Edo States.

Addressing journalists at the Unity Fountain where the protest started, one of the leaders of the group, Dr Moses Paul, said the interim government is expected to appoint a new INEC chairman and conduct a fresh election that will produce a befitting President for Nigeria.

He said; “We are citizens of Nigeria, lovers of Nigeria, standing on the path of our constitution and citizens’ rights. We are here particularly to address the greatest crime that has happened in the history of the world and in Nigeria. People were burnt in Kano, people were shot in Rivers, and we have seen the greatest inhumanity happen in Lagos state in the course of this election.

“Two demands we are making; we are asking the President of this country to immediately arrest and prosecute the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, who has committed the greatest fraud in the history of humanity. We need him arrested and prosecuted.

“Our number two demand is that we are asking that an interim government be put in place. We are saying that, because we do not want President Muhammadu Buhari to continue, his tenure is ending, so as a father he should put in place an interim government so that the interim government will now appoint another INEC chairman who will conduct a free and credible election and produce a befitting President for our country.”

When asked to provide other options if the two demands were not met, one of the co-conveners, Anngu Orngu, said they are harmless Nigerians “but we will use every other civil and lawful means to make sure that our demands are met”.

“We are here as frustrated Nigerians and the fundamental rights of Nigerians have been trampled upon by Mahmood Yakubu-led INEC and we are here calling for his immediate resignation. We have also requested that DSS should arrest him, and he should be prosecuted by the EFCC.

“We are calling on DSS to arrest Mahmood immediately, the EFCC should investigate him and we are also calling on the Nigerian Judiciary because those concerned are already in court, particularly the presidential election of February 25, we are calling on the judges in Nigeria that we want justice to prevail.

“We have been to the US Embassy, we have been to the British Council in Nigeria, and we have also submitted a letter to the French Embassy, calling on them to advise the Nigerian government that the Nigerian people are not happy. We the young people of this country are not happy over what is happening in our country. We may be peaceful now but when you push even a goat to the wall, the goat may bite,” he added.

In one of the letters made available to journalists and addressed to the United States Embassy, the protesters called for sanctions against the INEC Chairman.

The letter reads in part; “The conduct of the elections is in substantial none compliance with the extant legal framework.

“These criminal actions of Prof. Mahmood Yakubu have led to the dampening of the revived spirit of youths who in anticipation of a country that works for all, turned out in their large numbers to vote, some for the first time in their lives, for their preferred candidates only to be greeted with violence and subversion of their collective will.

“Based on the foregoing, we pray your good offices to amongst other appropriate sanctions, withdraw the visas of Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, all the Resident Electoral Commissioners of states where these infractions were prevalent, particularly the RECs of Lagos, Rivers, Borno, Zamfara, Niger, Jigawa, Kano, Imo, Ebonyi, Ekiti, Ogun, Oyo, parts of Cross River, parts of Katsina and Edo States.”

Etc

Waiting for the rest

Just imagine their wacky aegis

Disgusting.

Asiwaju is our president-elect. Period.

Omo u broke

All I see is WAILING WAILERS

Pro Tinubu guys should start planning for these guys as soon as possible... Igbos don't mind if North rule them forever, Yoruba is their biggest headache. They had no choice in 1999 because Yoruba contested against another Yoruba but they still chose the one unpopular among the Yorubas.

This was how Igbos protested against Abiola's mandate in 1993 that justified Babangida's interim government instead of handing over to Abiola... The depth of Igbo's hate for the Yorubas is just unimaginable.

You're calling for an Interim Government? No problem, your wish may come to but... Before you put too much effort into the process, I strongly advise you go back in history re: Nigerian political landscape of 1963/65 and 1993/98. Just a simple advice. Shikena 🤔

Yeah!! Ground Abuja on social media. Show us photo and videos and where the fool called Peter Obi is leading the so called protest. Useful idiots that doesn't value their Biafra nation.

They are sponsored by PDP. The LP has strong local and international backing. They don't need to organise silly protests.

PDP is the financier of the protests. Obi has nothing to do with it.

Labour Party wing.

the script started with the fake prophecies and so everything that was scripted is being forced to play out.

Same prophet that said PDP will loose Rivers Governorship and that Omo Agege will win Delta?

How on earth do they think that Buhari will just announce an interim government. They think they are the only one that can protest.

Deny Jagaban the swearing in and see the army of protests that will spring up. You guys think that man is ordinary politician? He should be studied.

Nuisance, you think Abuja is Lagos where you went and caused mayhem in the name of endears, the pro Tinubu protesters are not ready for you yet, but very soon you will meet your match, this election has been won and lost, there is no two ways about it

I’m in Abuja and there is no such protest going on not to talk of grounding the FCT.

People will only protest in of Tinubu in the slums of Lagos.

Peter Obi has the rest of Nigeria, including Abuja and Lagos where the major protests will be going on

slowpoke, that is the picture in the post by vanguard. Blind senseless idiot who only thinks one way.

In military strategies likewise in politics, you may be used without you know you have been using.

Obi was being used to allow his region to participate in the 2023 General Election.

Also, to give a clear victory for the APC by dividing the PDP vote in that region" SS & SE of course.

As a litmus test, Northerners value their religion more than anything and they are utilizing this under the democratic process.

Only the deep can invite into the deep indeed.

A typical case of if I don’t have it, no one will have it.

Very wicked devilish people

Them go cry tire

BiafraAburi:

Honestly, all of those useful idiots should be shot at sight. Dumb assholes trying to be accepted in a shithole where they are being pushed out. Some Igbo people are daft and dumb.

You are too primitive. You still want to shoot human being to death in this day and age just for a protest?

Dey should continue playing

Useless second class citizen are wasting their time
