The Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar , says he welcomes President Muhammadu Buhari’ s New Year message in which the President said the 2019 election should not be a do – or-die affair.
Reacting to the President ’s message in Abuja, the former
Vice President said leaders should lead by example by preaching peace
at all times .
Buhari had said in his New Year message that ,
elections need not be a do – or- die affair, and that politicians should
not approach them with mortal fear .
Atiku , however, noted in a
statement that it was not enough for the President to condemn do – or-
die politics if he cannot control the activities of overzealous aides,
including the country’ s security chiefs, especially the Inspector
General of Police whose activities lately gives him away as a partisan
player in negation of his constitutional role .
The PDP presidential candidate advises Buhari to go beyond lip service and urge security chiefs to be politically neutral during the election , adding that their loyalty to the constitution doesn ’t include putting themselves at the service of the ruling party at the expense of free and fair elections.
Atiku also called on President Buhari to follow
the example of former President Goodluck Jonathan , who, in 2015 , who
he said walked the talk of the 2015 elections not being worth the blood
of any Nigerian.
According to Atiku , Jonathan lived by his noble
words and statesmanship when he conceded defeat without hesitation,
thereby contributing to peaceful conduct of the election .
The PDP presidential candidate also reminded Buhari that it was not enough to “preach peace when he cannot publicly condemn the violent behaviour of his supporters who harass , molest and publicly humiliate his opponents and their supporters. ”
