PDP's Open Letter To Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari

Some aggrieved members of the Anambra state House of

Representatives- elect have written an open letter to
President Muhammadu Buhari.

Reports from Anambra says that the reps-elect want the
president to wade into the dispute surrounding the
legitimacy of those currently serving as federal lawmakers
from the state. In the letter dated March 29, 2016, the
lawmakers; Emmanuel Nweke, Benedict Obaze, Anthony Offiah, Charles Odedo, Princess Ifeyinwa Anazonw, Mrs Uchenna Obi, Dr Ejike Nwene and Julius Oforma are accusing Professor Mahmood Yakubu, the chairman of Independent National Electoral Commissioner (INEC) of being partisan in the matter. “Your Excellency on Thursday the 24th of March, 2016 at the All Progressives Congress (APC) NEC meeting vicariously apologized to the nation for the failure of INEC to conclusively handle the elections in Kogi, Bayelsa and Rivers States.



See part of the letter:



“There is no gainsaying that INEC is a veritable institution for the attainment of the lofty democratic ideals. The INEC Chairman not only failed in Kogi, Bayelsa and Rivers states but also woefully and curiously failed in Anambra State where the issue is not even that of the rigorous conduct of elections but the simple implementation of a court judgment.

“The bitter pill of apologies was forced down the throat of Mr. President by no other than the INEC under the leadership of Professor Mahmoud Yakubu. We know that Mr. President means well for Nigeria and Nigerians hence the undeterred fight against corruption and the resolve to enthrone a convivial atmosphere for democracy.”

Only recently, the Anglican Bishop of Awka Diocese, Dr Alexander Chibuzor Ibezim the President Buhari-led administration’s performance was a long way from being impressive.
Reports says that the eminent clergyman asserted that the economy was collapsing under the federal government led by President Buhari.

He lamented that the high level of hunger in the country has made life miserable for most Nigerians.
