“Militarization” of election by President Jonathan! – APC,

“Militarization” of election by President Jonathan! – APC Isn’t it laughable that the very people that can never do without security operatives following them, their children , wives and relatives in score are now the very apostle that faults President Jonathan’s ingenuous attempt to ensure security of lives and properties during elections!? What is even more ironical is that same people dish to the media heinous hate and inciting utterances that would under certain circumstances force the President to ask the IG to execute immediate arrests! From Gen. Buhari to Bola Ahmed Tinubu to Ogbeni Aregbesola to Lie Mohammed and host of other APC stalwarts all move about happily with a lot of Police, Army and even some DSS men and not only that they also further strengthens their personal security by using convoys and serine to help them have easy and secure passages. I have never heard any of them ever complain of militarization of the country! It is only once in four years that teeming Nigerian electorates come out to vote for candidates of their choice and that is the only time common Nigerians could enjoy the unique services of being protected but not just bodily protected but protection of the rights of the citizens to elect a leader of their choice and some frog heads are saying that is militarization of election! Well it may be understandable while the characters who say such ridiculous thing are saying so. You have not forgotten the common slogan during elections that state governors should ‘deliver’ the states to themselves and finally to their parties! You understand what this so called deliver means, most time it means rigging of election to the favor of themselves and their parties which entail ballot box stuffing and swapping! All this deprive the electorates of enjoying the power of their votes. You recall how whenever elections are conducted within the state the state electoral commission and state government would ensure that all elective positions would go to which ever party that is in power! With this President Jonathan’s ingenious approach such a thing would be a thing of the past! The legacy President Jonathan wants to live is simple, “One man or woman one vote!”. Looking at the matter more broadly, when you consider all that the opposition have been doing and saying as regard the insurgency going on in the North East you cant but suspect that remotely the opposition must be rendering some form of support to the insurgent, the least among this support is moral support! So would you expect the President in considerations of this possibility leave the grounds unguarded and then create room for any thing under high heaven to occur and mind you when the President allows that to happen the same opposition that blames the President of militarization would turn back and accuse him of not managing the security of lives and properties well!
