Lai Mohammed To Thugs: Disrupt Saturday’s Election In Kwara And Risk Your Lives by LocalChamp: 11:27pm On Mar 04, 2019
March 4, 2019 Agency Report
Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, says All Progressives Congress (APC) will win the Saturday’s Governorship and State Assembly elections in Kwara State with higher margin than the Presidential and National Assembly polls.

The minister, who is the leader of APC in the state, said this on Monday after a meeting with the party leaders from the 16 local government areas in the state.

He said the meeting reviewed the past elections and strategised on how to garner more votes in the Saturday’s governorship and state assembly polls.

Mr Mohammed told voters in the state to ignore the threat by the opposition to disrupt the Saturday’s poll, assuring them that the government would provide adequate security to protect them.

He said he got the information that the opposition was planning to unleash political thugs to attack and intimidate voters during the Saturday’s polls.

“We have been hearing a lot of things that they have imported a lot of thugs to Kwara to disrupt the Saturday’s elections.

“If anyone does so, he or she will be risking his or her life.


“We are appealing to our people that the Federal Government is going to provide adequate security for all,” he said.

The APC won the Presidential, all the three senatorial and six House of Representatives seats in Kwara in the February 23 elections.

The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, lost his bid for re-election into the Senate from Kwara Central on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party.

Mr Saraki lost to Ibrahim Oloriegbe of the All Progressives Congress, in the senatorial election.

Mr Oloriegbe polled 123,808 votes to defeat the Mr Saraki, who scored 68,994 votes in the four local governments of Kwara Central Senatorial District.

Lai Mohammed has a civic duty to ensure that the elections are fair and free of coercion, intimidation or violence. By warning hooligans of the repercussions of causing havoc, he has proven to be a true compatriot albeit leaning toward party lines, nonetheless we should not forget that in ninety ninety four, Rashidi Yekini became the first Nigerian to score in the worldcup where we defeated Bulgaria 3-0. If coach Westerhof did not remove Amunike during the round of 16 game against Italy, the super eagles may have made it to the semi finals.

Kwara ppl should watch it. APC might be sending thugs or military to attack on the election day. Especially if they find out that u guys are vovoting for another party that is not APC.
this might be a warning! Remember they did the same on during presidential election

I am not surprised that this is coming from the blood sucker himself. But how can the government be threatening the very citizens it is duty bound to protect with taking their own lives because of political gains? Nigeria is really finished under Buhari's regime and we are all going to pay for it. GEJ made it categorically clear that ''his political ambition is not worth more than the live of a single Nigeria''. Those are the words of a true domocrat, a true leader and a true Nigerian, a Godly and peaceful man. Today, the exact opposite is the case in Nigeria. Buhari and his APC government do not care about how many Nigerians they take in order to achieve their political ambition. This is too sad. Indeed, there was a country.

Strong warning.
Re: Lai Mohammed To Thugs: Disrupt Saturday’s Election In Kwara And Risk Your Lives by myrates: 6:48am On Mar 05, 2019
Why is APC always issuing life threatening statements? What is wrong with arresting and prosecuting electoral offenders and bringing them to justice? It is very wrong for a democratic constituted authority to always issue statements that suggest indiscriminate killings of people. Okota-Lagos scenario comes to mind, using deodorants for APC strong holds and insecticides where APC is less popular.

And what do you have to say to our thugs in Lagos: "DISRUPT THE ELECTION IN LAGOS AND BOOST YOUR LIFE".
Re: Lai Mohammed To Thugs: Disrupt Saturday’s Election In Kwara And Risk Your Lives by Charmingrascal(m): 7:03am On Mar 05, 2019
We support you.
Saraki and his "good boys" already have plan in place to disrupt the election, security operatives should shot anybody that tries to disrupt the elections.
