Buhari Support Group has called on the law
enforcement agents to effect the arrest of Chief
Femi Fani-Kayode for saying that PDP had won in
23 states even when INEC had not announced
any results. The group at a press conference in
Abuja yesterday March 30th said Fani-Kayode
through his action breached the electoral law
"We strongly condemn in its entirety, the
recent outburst and blatant misinformation of
the general public by Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode
that the PDP is already leading in 23 states
of the federation. This claim is a total breach
of the electoral act and is designed to cause
the breach of peace. Gen. Mohammadu
Buhari had repeatedly emphasised to his
supporters to maintain calmness in that face
of provocation by the ruling party. This
recent utter exhibition of lawlessness
enmeshed in the typical character of impunity
by PDP is unacceptable. We ask the security
agencies to immediately effect the arrest of
Mr. Fani-Kayode for breaching relevant
sections of the electoral act which forbids
any organ outside INEC from officially
declaring election results. His arrest for
further questioning will be a clear indication
that the security agencies are truly unbiased
participants in this electoral process as this
declaration is also a breach of both the 1st
and 2nd Abuja Peace Accord. We call on the
international community and observers to
note the steps being taken by PDP to cause
severe breach of peace and call them to
order. We also ask our supporters to
maintain the peace as we await the official
announcement from INEC of the authentic
result for the March 28th elections.” Media
and Publicity Director of the group, Dr. Chidia
Maduekwe said
