Speaking at the Peoples Democratic Party National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting at Abuja on Wednesday, the Senate President, Bukola Saraki said that the reelection of the President for a second time would be short-lived.

He scorned the way President Buhari was victorious at the last election, and said the Peoples Democratic Party must defeat the president at the Petition Tribunal.

If we recall, Bukola Saraki was the Director General of the Presidential Campaign Organization for Atiku Abubakar. He claimed that the election showed the true color of the PDP.

In his words, “First of all, the true reflection of the presidential election showed the kind of character that the PDP has. I think that is something that we should build on.

“My own appeal to everybody is to say this victory that the other party has seen is going to be short-lived. We have a great future ahead and I believe we will start that on Saturday, to make sure that we defend those five states that are declared inconclusive.

“If anybody believes that it is a loss to PDP, it is a loss to the country that history will not forgive. We said many times here, that the worst to do is to do an election that as a country, Nigeria will not be proud of.

We have done an election that no doubt anybody and even those that think they have won are ashamed of the kind of election we did.

“I think it is a shame to the country and those that were given that responsibility to do. We are setting a bad example not only in Nigeria but in the continent, when we bring militarisation into our election”.
