The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State said
it has printed and distributed 250,000 copies of the audio and video recordings
revealing the details of how the June 21, 2014 governorship election was
allegedly rigged in favour of Governor Ayodele Fayose.
A statement by the State Publicity Secretary of
the party, Taiwo Olatubosun, said the recording revealed a grand conspiracy
coordinated by some officers of the Nigerian Army.
He said the party took the step to let the world
know the truth about ‘’Ekiti election miracle where a governor with unrivaled
sterling performance failed to win a single local government out of the 16
local government areas of the state, including his own’’.
He said it was giving victory to a man, who two
years earlier, had lost a senatorial election in the state.
The statement read, “Details of corrupt practices
by soldiers, as contained in the tape, lent credence to the inclusion of the
military as a defendant at the Ekiti State Election Petitions Tribunal,
challenging the return of Fayose as the winner of the election.”
“In the tape, secretly recorded by Army Captain
Sagir Koli, voices of participants in the election fraud were heard talking
about operational details and giving instructions on how to help Fayose to win
the election. Koli went on exile after releasing the tape.
“Another group, a non-governmental organisation,
had two weeks ago produced 200,000 copies and distributed them around the world
with copies sent to the United Nations, African Union and ECOWAS secretariats.
“Nigerians and indeed decent people of the world
will hear of how a Brigadier-General in the Nigerian Army was thoroughly
disgraced by brigands and lawless individuals in the PDP, who should ordinarily
quiver when an army corporal gives orders.
“Nigerians will hear a Brigadier-General talking
of how he set up “Strike Forces” to be unleashed on APC leaders and supporters
in cowing them down to submission in order to ensure victory for Fayose.
“It is a pity and a tragedy of our history that a
man who is supposed to be in chains and drilled in frog-jump by a Nigerian Army
recruit for his crime is the one assuring a serving Brigadier-General in the
Nigerian Army of promotion if he could help the PDP in the dishonourable
enterprise of poll fraud in favour of a man with several alleged criminal cases
in courts.
”Nigerians will hear Fayose and other
co-conspirators talking and boasting that the top echelons of the Nigerian Army
and their Commander-in-Chief were the chief executioners of Ekiti poll fraud.
The world will hear Fayose talking about how he collected soft copies of INEC’s
sensitive election materials and got them printed to give him victory.”
The APC spokesman said the revelation by Fayose
that he collected soft copies of INEC sensitive materials and got them printed
had confirmed the party’s claim that photochromic papers were used to fix Ekiti
election in his favour.
