News: Masari Knocks President Jonathan, Jega on Election

The former Speaker of Nigeria’s House of Representatives, Hon Aminu Masari says the All Progressives Congress, APC, as a major stakeholder in Nigeria’s politics has its fears for the Independent National Electoral Commission’s ability to conduct a free, fair and credible election in 2015 without interference from the presidency and the ruling People’s Democratic Party, PDP.
Hon Masari disclosed this during a live interview on the London based BEN Television’s morning programme. The former speaker said that Nigerians are ready and willing to participate in the general elections and are ready to defend their votes. He condemned INEC’s inability to assure Nigerians of its readiness to conduct a credible election in 2015. ‘The country is ready for elections. We believe Nigeria has the capacity to have free and fair elections otherwise INEC should not give room to PDP to create a state of emergency.  We will not give room for them to rig elections and we will reject anything from INEC that favours the PDP’.
