A former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress , Chief John Oyegun, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to sign the Electoral Act Amendment Bill into law.
He said while he does not see the military taking over power in the country again, he queried if Nigeria is truly building on the sacrifice and the ultimate price paid by some people for the democracy that the country is enjoying today. He stated: “We can see that in the same area, people will vote for the president, but throw out their governor. So, the voting public is a lot more sensible and sensitive today and they have started to realise that finally they are the employers of all politicians, whether president, governor or local government chairman. Therein lies the hope of democracy in this country.
Asked if his call for the building of strong electoral is a call on the president to take a look at the rejected Electoral Act amendment bill, Oyegun stated: “Whatever defects they ran in it, we now have a bit of time, it should be looked at. I know there is no electronic system that you cannot undermine, but things should happen in such quick succession.
He stressed that the one hour documentary was also aimed at creating a sense of eternal vigilance to enable the nation guard against pitfalls of yesterday.
