Governor Ayodele Fayose has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of paying lip service to the rule of law as it concerns democracy in Nigeria.
Reacting to the Rivers election rerun in a statement, he said: “Any president that looks the other way while the rights of his people to freely elect their leaders is being snatched at gunpoint by his own party men is not worthy of being associated with democracy.”
".. ‘free, fair and credible election’ is dead in the country and whatever victory recorded by any political party in the election will be nothing but victory at gun-point.
“It is clear that Nigeria is under siege and only prompt intervention by the international community could save democracy in the country from this imminent collapse,” he said.
