Former Ogun State governor and leader of the Action Congress of
Nigeria (ACN), Olusegun Osoba yesterday said the governor, Gbenga Daniel was
not in reckoning of the party in the state.

Mr Osoba who spoke with journalists at his Abeokuta residence
against the backdrop of the sweeping victory of his party at the polls, the
state chapter of the party has nothing and will not have anything to do with Mr
Daniel as regards political alliance as being speculated.

He said: “We don’t need any alliance of any kind with anybody or
group. We don’t want to pollute our reputation with fetish people.

If anybody thinks that I will sit down with the out-going
governor, he is wasting his time. The speculation was that he went to Lagos
which I doubt, but Lagos is not Ogun State I will continue to respect the
office of the Governor where I have been twice , where we are going to be by
May 29, but his person should be separated from the office.”

He, however added that if the governor after the election makes
any move to him he is available. “Until we conclude all the elections, no
interest or talk with anybody. I have nothing against his party; he has the
right under the constitution to form any party of his.”

Lauds security
arrangement

The former governor lauded the security arrangement during the
poll and commended security agencies for standing against all odds by some
unscrupulous politicians who wanted to rig the elections. “I want to commend
the entire police force in Ogun State for the brilliant performance that they
put up. The police and other security agencies, particularly the Brigade
Commander whose men responded instantly to many of the distress calls that were
made to them particularly in flash points where they attempted to disrupt
elections and snatch ballot boxes.”

There was a large turn out of voters in Ondo State as the
rescheduled National Assembly elections started on a relatively peaceful note
in all of the local councils visited.

As early as 8am, the electorate trooped out to exercise their
civic responsibility. Some of the areas visited were, Supare, Owo, Ose,
Iwaro-Oka, Akungba and Ikare, all in the Northern Senatorial district of Ondo
State. Other areas were: Ondo town, Idanre, Owena and Igbara-Oke areas of the
Central senatorial district.

However, violence was recorded in some areas later as thugs
invaded the polling units shooting intermittently to scare the electorate.
Specifically, some political thugs engaged security operatives in a gun duel in
Ogbese area of Akure Local Government and two of them were reportedly killed in
the process.

“No death was recorded in Ogbese, some thugs engaged the police
in gun duel and they were later arrested by the police,” Mr Aremu said.

Also, there were alleged inducements of voters with cash in
Owo/Ose area as politicians of the three major political parties in the state
openly offered cash to voters in exchange for their votes.

Election did not take place in three out of the eighteen wards
in Arogbo in Ese-Odo Local government area of the state.

In Owo, the Action Congress of Nigeria Candidate (ACN) candidate
for Owo/Ose Federal Constituency, complained about the use of government
vehicles to intimidate voters.

The Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Alli Olanusi, who spoke with
reporters after voting at his home town, Supare, commended the strict
enforcement of the no-movement order.

Mr Olanusi who voted at Saint James Primary School around
12.35pm said the election was peaceful and devoid of violence.

Praises for INEC

The state governor, Olusegun Mimiko also praised the peaceful
conduct of the accreditation process during the National Assembly elections in
the state.

Mr Mimiko spoke with newsmen shortly after casting his vote at
1pm at Open Space, Opposite Mango Tree polling unit, Lodasa/Iparuku/Lijoka Ward
in Ondo Township as well as his wife, Olukemi.

He praised the diligence of the security agencies in enforcing
the restriction on movement during the election period and ensuring orderliness
at various polling centres during the election.

“Let me say it is too early to be absolutely categorical, but
the preliminary report that we have gotten from the field shows that the whole
exercise had been relatively peaceful particularly because of the enforcement
of the restriction of vehicular movement. The report we got up till the end of
accreditation exercise has been that it has been generally peaceful, but we
don’t know what is happening all over the place now. After this, I will be able
to get in touch to know what actually happened,” the governor said.

The decision of the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) to shift the parliamentary election in Ekiti State
to 26 April has drawn reactions from politicians across the state. The
politicians complained that the rescheduling of the polls will have serious implications
on their resources.

The Resident Electoral Commissioner of the state
Halilu Hussaini Pai told journalists yesterday that the decision to shift the
election was carried in consultation with all the political parties in the
state. Mr Pai, however, promised that the Commission will conduct free, fair,
credible and acceptable election at all times and called on the people not to
be disappointed in the electoral process.

However, the PDP candidate for Ekiti South
Federal Constituency 2, Femi Bamisile described the postponement as
embarrassing and constituting a financial burden to him.

Reactions

Although the candidate expressed confidence that
INEC is capable of conducting credible elections, he posited that the incessant
deferment of election may cause apathy among the electorate. “We could
understand that the INEC is having problems of logistics, and if this is what
the commission is out to correct, we are ready to cooperate,” he said. “But I
am not particularly happy about the postponement, because it has affected us
financially and morally.”

His Action Congress of Nigeria counterpart, Ife
Arowosoge also expressed disappointment with the incessant postponement, saying
it has caused psychological torture to all Nigerians.

“The postponement has dampened the morale of highly enthusiastic Nigerians,”
he said. “We call on the INEC Chairman to correct the electoral ills in the
overall interest of the nation.” He said.

Speaking at the Abuja University Teaching Hospital, Gwagwalada,
while visiting victims of the Friday Suleja bomb blast, President Goodluck
Jonathan reiterated that the perpetrators will be made to face the law.

He also expressed happiness at how citizens turned out en-mass
to choose those to represent them at the federal level during the weekend,
despite all the setbacks. He noted that during subsequent elections all hitches
witnessed last week would have been cut down as all mistakes would have been
corrected.

Mr Jonathan, who arrived at the Gwagwalada Teaching Hospital at
2:16 pm, was received by the Chief Medical Director, Dr. Peter Alabi. He was
accompanied by the Minister of Defence, Adetokunbo Ademola and senior
Presidency aides. He offered words of sympathy to each of the 14 victims.
Speaking to journalists after signing the hospital guestbook, Mr Jonathan
expressed sadness that anyone would want to cut down the future and hope of
Nigeria by hurting its youth.

A ray of hope

“As regards the elections, we all are happy that despite some
setbacks that were witnessed, Nigerians generally are happy that at least they
can decide who will represent them or who will govern them. I believe that by
2015 when elections are conducted in this country some of the hiccups we
witnessed on Saturday would have abated. I also believe that any subsequent
election, one coming up this Saturday and upper Saturday will definitely
improve on this. So, for that I’m quite happy.

“But having inspected the hospital wards, and I have seen young
people who are serving their nation just caught up in these dastardly act by
some antisocial elements I feel sad. These are young people in the prime of
their life. The hope and future of Nigeria. For anybody targeting the youth is
targeting the country.

“They don’t mean well for the nation. Well, in all societies we
have such people but as a government we make sure that we would look out for
them and God willing we would get them, not all but some of them. And they
would face the law,” he said.

Mr Jonathan promised that the federal government would pick the
hospital bill of the victims and subsequently take care of those incapacitated.

“For the injured the government will take care of all their
medical bills and by the time they are okay, we would look at their conditions,
the ones that are having pressure to take care of themselves, with what I have
seen government will definitely assist,” the President said.

Meanwhile, the Movement for Democratic Sustainability (MDS) has
described the outcome of elections as the clearest indication that the Goodluck
Jonathan administration is committed to delivering on its promises of
conducting the freest and fairest election in Nigeria’s history.

The non-governmental organisation in a statement in Lagos after
the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) announced some of the
results of the National Assembly polls, said that upsets which the elections
threw up has not only vindicated the administration, but is also a radical
departure from the traditions of past administrations that were not receptive
to changes.

According to the publicity secretary of the MDS, Afam Iheanacho, “The
transparency of the election has shamed divisive elements and
pull-the-house-down politicians who had doubted the credibility of INEC and
tried to instigate Nigerians not to venture out for the election following the
shift in the polls penultimate week.”

Praising Nigerians for their maturity which was demonstrated by the huge
number of voters that turned up for the elections across the federation, the
MDS said that “no bombing or other terrorist acts would stop Nigerians from
exercising their franchise which this administration has vowed to guarantee by
ensuring a transparent process.”

Underage voters
came out in full force in Katsina for the second week running. With no
one willing to take the responsibility of dissuading them, many of them
proudly brandished what appeared to be legitimate voter cards.

Umar Bala, who
looked no older than 10, showed off his voting card which declared him
18 years of age and thus eligible to vote. At Sandamu Mati Adult
Education Centre polling unit in Sandamu Local Government in Katsina
State where Master Bala displayed his card, a police sergeant, Tasiu
Ali, upon seeing the press hurriedly got another small child waiting to
be accredited to put his voter’s card in his pocket and leave the area.
All this happened in full view of officials of the Independent National
Electoral Commission, including Friday Ahuazoribe, a National Youth
Service Corps member and INEC’s presiding officer in the area. But
while Mr. Ali, brandishing a tear gas canister, denied aiding and
abetting election criminality, Mr. Ahuazoribe who had initially
declared there were no irregularities at his centre before NEXT
observed the name and picture of a minor included in the voter’s
register before him, confessed the inclusion of minors in the list. He,
however, said he refused to accredit them.

“There are only two
children in the list but when they came, I asked them to go and call
their village chief and that they should bring their birth certificate
to prove they are 18 years. I did not accredit them,” Mr. Ahuazoribe
said. A similar situation was observed at other polling units in the
state. At Yadangammu Bakinrijiya, Gabriel Onoleke, the INEC presiding
officer, also an NYSC member, said, “We’ve had more than 10 (underage
children), and we are still expecting more of them.”

Missing voters

Another widespread
problem was that numerous voters in centres across the state had their
names omitted in the voter’s register. While Mr. Onoleke said he had
discovered two people’s names missing in his unit, Uchenna Nwafor, also
an NYSC member and INEC’s presiding officer in Mallamawa Low Cost
polling unit in Daura Local Government, said at least 110 people did
not have their names on his list.

“There are about
547 people registered here. But as they came for accreditation, we
discovered their names are not in the register. What we are doing is to
compile their names and submit them to INEC for necessary action to be
taken,” Mr. Nwafor said.

Mixed turnout

Assessing the
turnout of voters for the day’s exercise, Mr. Nwafor said it was less
impressive compared to last week’s elections which INEC botched due to
the inadequate supply of election material across the country. However,
there was a noticeable difference at other polling areas in Doka and
other locations in Mashi Local Government Area where crowds, with women
in several places outnumbering the men, queued to cast their votes.

“I am impressed with the determination of the people who came out to
get accredited and to vote,” said Mohammed Buhari, the presidential
flagbearer of the Congress for Progressive Change, after casting his
vote at Kofar Baru polling unit in Sarkin Yara Ward A in Daura Local
Government Area, his hometown. On the discovery of underage voters, the
former head of state blamed INEC officials for their insincerity in
conducting the elections stating: “INEC officials should do their job
as covered by the Electoral Act. Where they find illegal voter’s cards,
they should destroy those cards in front of all observers, the
political parties, the police and everyone.”

The parliamentary
election in Kwara State was a contest father and son. Bukola Saraki’s
party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) came face to face with his
father, Olusola Saraki’s Party, the Allied Congress of Nigeria Party
(ACNP). Though the exercise was peaceful in most parts of the state, it
was not without hitches.

The accreditation
process was fast and well coordinated. The governor of the state, Mr
Saraki told the media that the huge turnout of voters was impressive
and also a sign that Nigerians are ready for a change.

Comments on the polls

“I think it is
commendable that despite last week’s disappointment, people still turn
out in this huge numbers to vote. I think it is a good development for
our country,” He said.

Speaking to NEXT
after he voted, a PDP aspirant for the Kwara Central House of
Representatives, Moshood Dele Belgore, ACN governorship candidate said
INEC should be commended.

“I have been very
critical of them, but I will say so far so good. If it continues like
this, I can say that we will probably have the most orderly election
we’ve ever had. So, we are hopeful and the expectation is that it will
continue, but it is too early to conclude what the day is still going
to be like,” he said.

In Omu Aran, several voters complained their names were missing from the register.

Lai Mohammed, the
national spokesperson of ACN, who is an indigene of Oro, told NEXT at
4PM that it was too early to comment on the election.

“We are going to do a comprehensive assessment of the entire election. That is it,” he said.

Violence yesterday
marred the National Assembly election in Ile-Ife, Osun state, as five
people were murdered in the early hours of the day in a church. The
dead include two aides of Rotimi Makinde, the Action Congress of
Nigeria House of Representatives candidate for the Ife federal
constituency. The other three are the husband of the founder of the
Cherubim and Seraphim Church, identified as Baba Akin, his son Wale and
a worshipper of the church whose name is still unknown.

Security sources
said that suspected thugs invaded the residence of Mr. Makinde around
2.30am and started shooting sporadically. In an attempt to escape from
the assassins’ bullets, the two aides ran into the church where they
were eventually overpowered and shot. Mr. Makinde, who was not at home
when the assailants came, said that the intention of the killer squad
was to eliminate him.

Osun state governor, Rauf Aregbesola, said he had alerted security agents in the state to find the murderers.

The state
commissioner of police, Peter Gana, said that the police had launched
an investigation into the matter, adding that no arrests had been made
yet. In most parts of the state, including Ede, Osogbo, Okuku, Ikirun,
Ilesa, Iragbiji, Iree and Iba, the turnout of voters was relatively
high but not as high as last Saturday. Voting materials arrived at
various destinations at the appropriate time while the accreditation of
voters also started on schedule.

Mr. Aregbesola and
the former governor of the state, Olagunsoye Oyinlola, commended INEC
and security agents for their efforts in conducting a free and fair
election. The Accord Party’s senatorial candidate for Osun Central
senatorial district, Felix Ogunwale, praised the efforts of Governor
Aregbeesola for ensuring peace in the state. Police spokesperson,
Olugbemileke Taiwo, said a majority of those arrested during
yesterday’s election were those that disobeyed the ‘no movement of
vehicles’ order given by the police.

“Many vehicles and motorcycles were impounded at various police stations across the state,” he said.

political parties, the police and everyone.”

The rise in the
cases of election violence in the country is generating concern among
the electorate. It is worrisome considering the fact that it is of a
national dimension. Hundreds of cars were recently burnt in Akwa-Ibom
and many lives were lost. The long-running crisis in Plateau State has
also become political and has in several ways become tied to the
ongoing election.

Amnesty International, a human rights organisation, recently warned of a rise in violence as election draws near.

“The Nigerian
authorities and the Independent National Electoral Commission must
prevent a repeat of the political violence that characterised the 2007
and 2003 elections,” the agency said. “In the run-up to the elections,
the country has seen an increase in violence. Several hundred people
have been killed in politically-motivated, communal and sectarian
violence in the past six months.” Most of the violence are linked to
local elections, especially in places where state governors are facing
strong opposition challenges.

Violence prone areas

The National
Emergency Management Agency recently announced a list of 12 violence
prone states across the country. The states are: Oyo and Ogun
(South-West); Katsina and Kano (North-West); Bayelsa and Akwa-Ibom
(South-South); Nasarawa and Benue (North-Central); Borno and Gombe
(North-East); and Ebonyi and Anambra (South-East).

The agency’s
spokesperson, Yushau Shuaibu, said the states had “attracted more
headlines and public attention to acrimonious activities among the
political actors and parties,” and should therefore be given more
attention.

Recently, the 36
state governors in the country met to discuss the security challenges
in the country. Though it was attended by only a few governors, they
condemned the violence and charged security officials to stamp this
down.

Kwara State
governor and Chairman of Nigeria Governor Forum (NGF), Bukola Saraki,
told journalists at the end of the deliberation that the importance of
security cannot be over-emphasized in any successful poll.

“We are concerned
about the security, election guidelines and procedures,” he said. “But
by and large, as governors, we are all committed to our position that
we want to win gallantly or lose gallantly. We are ready to accept
results of the elections, just as we preach issue of no violence in
this election. We are committed to our pledge to ensure transparent and
credible polls at our respective states and to let our supporters know
this in the interest of our great country.” Nigerian president,
Goodluck Jonathan has also made calls for peaceful polls in his
campaigns.

Little enforcement

However, experts say unless people are sanctioned for perpetrating violence, there might be no incentive to stop the practice.

Abiodun Ogundeji, a
security analyst and university lecturer, said a government that finds
it difficult to punish certain class of individuals for offences will
also find it hard to ensure a safe environment.

“The only thing I
have heard is what they will do, which they have not done and may never
do,” he said. “If a father cannot bring the son to justice for doing
what is wrong, then what do you expect from friends that share loots? I
am only afraid that the fear of violence may scare Nigerians from going
out to vote” The Executive Director of Centre for Peace Building and
Socio-Economic Resources Development, Ayokunle Fagbemi, said some
10,000 people had died in Nigeria since the return of democratic rule
in 1999. Mr Fagbemi described the casualty figure as alarming.

“From the savannah
regions of the Northern Nigeria to the oil-rich creeks of the Niger
Delta in the South, Nigeria’s electoral process within the past 13
years has been submerged in violence so much as to make mockery of the
democratisation process,” he said.

A Presidential
Committee was recently established on security and civic
responsibilities. Chairman of the Committee and Secretary-General of
the Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, Lateef Adegbite, also warned
that as the nation approaches the 2011 elections, death threats,
assassination and thuggery have become the order of the day.

“These acts of
violence clearly and adversely affect the image of our nation and also
undermine its corporate existence as well as the consolidation of our
emergent democracy;” he said.

But the leadership of security agencies have promised to frustrate
plans for violence before and after the ongoing elections. “Politics is
not a do-or-die affair. Politics should be played according to the
rules and regulations guiding such activities. Politicians should
always learn how to tolerate oppositions,” the commissioner in charge
of the police anti-bomb unit, Ambrose Aisabor, said.

Murtala Nyako has
warned President Goodluck Jonathan to be wary of some Abuja-based
politicians. Mr Nyako, a former opponent turned staunch supporter of
Mr. Jonathan’s presidential ambition, said when he delivers his state
to the PDP, the credit will not be that of politicians staying in
Abuja. His spokesperson, Aminu Iyawa explained the position of the
governor. Excerpts:

Conning the president

These Abuja-based
politicians normally do not go round to canvass for votes for the
president or anybody. What they do is that they just try to get the
attention of the president to get whatever they can get. Most of them
are just 419 politicians. They go and tell Jonathan that they will
deliver Adamawa to him. But the fact of the matter is that these people
have no influence in Adamawa politics. They always want to associate
with the winning party but they do not work for the winning party. You
only see them when they smell victory, its only then that they will
come and congratulate the winner. But the fact of the matter is that
they are not with Jonathan, neither are they with Nyako nor the people
of the state. Mark you, Nyako will deliver Adamawa State to president
Goodluck Jonathan. If you have been on this campaign trail, you would
have seen the massive turn-out indicating his popularity.

Why Jonathan got Adamawa support

No any other
candidate will get that kind of reception from the people of Adamawa
State. For anybody to say that there’s a party that can beat the PDP in
Adamawa State, well it is democracy. It is normal for anybody in the
opposition to blow his trumpet his own way and to claim that their
party is the best, that PDP will be defeated. But we all know all that
is sheer wishful thinking. Adamawa State is a PDP state. Government is
now responsive in the state. Roads that were not motorable, the
governor has reconstructed and provided more access roads to villages
and towns in the state. The Adamawa people are with their governor
because he has been working tirelessly for them.

Buba Marwa and CPC challenge

Marwa is not a
politician. All these noise and hype about Marwa, anybody can make the
same noise. It’s a matter of printing posters and going to newspaper
houses and broadcast stations to make some noise. Even though
politicians are not born but made, Marwa would never make a good
politician, especially here in Adamawa State. If you are a good
politician, you will not have to stick to your party. It is never done
like that. Jubril Aminu covets being a senator for life, but the people
of Adamawa decided otherwise. The so-called opposition can do whatever
they like, but the Adamawa electorate knows what kind of politicians
they want.

Government decision to start repaying WAEC fees

It is not a
reversal. What is happening is that some candidates who do not have
anything to offer to the people, think they can cash in on the WAEC
thing and get some votes. Unfortunately, the parents know the stand of
the government. What the government agreed to do is to stop payment
while we urge parents to pay for their children or wards. Then after
the results of the children are released, they can bring along the
result for us to ascertain and then we re-fund the parents whether the
child passes or not. What has been happening is that before governor
Nyako came to office, some people in the state ministry of education
have been inflating the figure of the number of candidates that are
sitting for WAEC. They use ghost candidates in order to get money out
of government.

Because of such
sharp practices, the government stopped accepting the names of
candidates given to it by the ministry. But that stoppage was temporary
to enable government determine the exact number of candidates and to
avoid paying for ghost candidates. The government was paying over N300m
as WAEC fees, the amount has reduced by over N200m. This confirms that
over half the candidates are ghost candidates and the money used to
line the pockets of officials in the system. It is even in the interest
of the parents and the state that the money the government is now
saving, would be used for other developmental projects instead of it
going into the pocket of a few government official in the ministry.

Working for the state

Nobody, not even
the federal government has been thinking and putting in place a plan
for the development of its people more than the Adamawa State
government. Since Nyako came into office, it is part of the plan that
our youth should be empowered. Since government cannot provide gainful
employment for everyone, what it can do is to empower its people so
that the creative energies of the youths are harnessed.

This has been the
approach since coming into office. And since Adamawa is an agrarian
state, government has been encouraging the youth to get into
agriculture as a way out of poverty. To do that, government has
established 21 farm skills acquisition centres in the state were they
are equipped with modern farming techniques.

Not only that, the
government also established three technical vocational training centres
in each of the senatorial district to train the youth on technical and
other mechanical skills.

The governor, Nyako
has been encouraging some of the other governors to participate in the
construction of a rail line that would link Adamawa, Taraba, Benue,
Akwa Ibom to Cross River State. This is because it would be easier if
we can have our goods transported from here to Calabar port and it
would be cheaper.

He has also undertaken to address the power challenge faced in state
by its planned evacuation of power from Lagdo dam in Cameroon and the
conversion of Kiri dam into a hydro-electricity generating dam to
provide power. He is somebody that has giving his time to improve
Adamawa and the lot of its people.
