Ahmadu Alli, Director-General of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation, has urged PDP faithful to stay at polling booths after casting their votes during the forthcoming elections.
This has come contrary to the directive given by the Inspector General of Police, IGP, Suleiman Abba, asking Nigerians to return home once they have cast their votes.
Alli, the former National Chairman of the PDP, spoke at the formal endorsement of President Jonathan Goodluck by the Association of Local Government of Nigeria, ALGON led by Micah Jiba.
He urged PDP supporters to stay back at the polling centers to prevent alleged plans by the leading opposition to rig the elections.
“A lot has been said about this election. I want to bring an aspect to you which is vital. The changing of guards at the presidential villa is crucial because it is our post 100 years of co-existence. We must use this election to prove our enemies wrong. Goodluck Jonathan is our solution to the series of problems we have in this country. He is well tested and has risen through the ranks to become a president. Can you say such a man does not have experience?
“Our product is marketable unlike the other old man who is part of my generation. He wants to come and rule this nation in this stage when everyone is moving to endorse younger leaders. We must support Jonathan to ensure that the old are not allowed to come back,” Alli also said.
