The National Caucus of the All Progressives Congress rose from its emergency meeting on Monday with a directive to all party to resume nationwide campaigns ahead of the presidential and National Assembly elections scheduled for Saturday.

The party’s National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, disclosed this while briefing journalists of the meeting’s outcome in Abuja.

Oshiomhole said the National Caucus “disagrees completely with illegal pronouncement of INEC” that campaigns had ended last Thursday.

He said the party would prefer to obey the provision of the Electoral Act that stipulates that campaign can hold till 24 hours to the date of the election.

He argued that low turn out during election encourages rigging, hence the decision of the party to encourage its to go out again and mobilise votes for the election.

Nigerians have looked back these 4 years and what we have seen is only total darkness and misery. Life has been so miserable within just 4 years of only one man Buhari, is it the herdsmen killings, bokoharam killings, disunity, nepotism, python dance on armless protesters, Shitte Muslims killings, Poverty capital of the world, what have we not seen withing just 4 years of this man Buhari, what??.

Anyone thinking of voting Buhari again may all these calamity listed above follow your immediate family from generation to generation, non shall escape it till eternity. Amen

Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi all the way..

campaign ends 24 hours before an election. If the election is on the 23rd, it simply means campaign stops on Friday. That's the law.

Sai Buhari


Nigeria situation could be likened to a market woman who sells 20 number of corns at a rate of 110 naira per each daily. Years later, the market leaders eventually reduced and controlled the price at 50 naira. The market woman is still expected to sell same 20 number of corns but nothing higher than this. Tell me if the woman's income would increase or decrease? However, if the woman had saved enough when the corn was still priced at 110 naira, she wouldn't be affected by the fall in sales price, pending the time sale price would increase once again.

That's the situation of Nigeria today. When crude oil which is our main source of foreign revenue was selling at $110 per barrel for more than 5 years under Jonathan, Jonathan didn't save but looted us dry instead. We're suffering from this effect today now that crude oil has been selling at a poverty rate of $50 per barrel for the past 4 years under Buhari yet Buhari istration has had so many projects undertaken by him despite earning 60% less.

If only people knew what other oil countries such as Angola and Venezuela are ing through during this global crude oil price recess, they would thank God Buhari came in rather than Jonathan who looted us dry despite oil boom when crude oil was selling at $110 per barrel for five years unlike the paltry $50 it has been selling under APC. If the looting Jonathan couldn't save during the time of plenty and was already borrowing, how would he have carried on during this crude oil price recess?


Despite Buhari istration earning 60% less yet he's come up with plenty projects such as

Our railways at itakpewarri, Lagos-ibadan, Lagos-Abeokuta, kaduna-abuja etc,

The production of low cost fertilizers,

Zik maoseleum

Baro inland port,

Kaduna inland dry port,

Port Harcourt airline terminal,

Abuja airline terminal,

Rice mills,

Foreign reserve increase from $26b to $43b,

Construction of our express highways such as enuguonitsha, Lagos-ibadan etc,

Several bail out funds to state governors,

Social policy schemes such as tradermoni, npower etc

Payment of all pensions of airline staffs that were forced to retire after the shambolic privatisation by Atiku. PDP didn't pay them in the last 16 years.

And most especially, stabilizing us through this recession which happened because jonathan failed to save despite earning 60% more than Buhari. Note that there has been a fall in the price of crude oil from $110 per barrel in 5 years under Jonathan to a paltry $50 per barrel under Buhari istration yet Buhari was able to keep us afloat while having many projects undertaken by him, thereby surprising Ngozi Iweala and Charles Soludo who predicted recession because jonathan looted and failed to save during the time of plentiful.

Sai Baba. PDP, Neva again

Since when has APC started obeying laws and order. Until says otherwise, all campaigns are closed.

They are so confident of winning but they are campaigning till last minute
Abagworo(m): 6:19pm On Feb 18, 2019
PDP has bought INEC deeply in some States and if APC is serious they should request for outright removal of staffs and adhoc staffs in Rivers State. The amount of money already given to them by PDP is staggering with promise of tens of millions more after election. As a good citizen I wish to see the will of the people not thwarted by INEC.

Stop been petty. It is not about APC, it is what is legally written down. Every party has a right to continue with campaign till 22nd.
