No change can come with people who rig elections, nothing good can come from representatives who mount the seat of office with a tainted, muddy and doping mandate.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He warned that Nigeria\u2019s 2019 general elections is globally adjudged to be fraudulent because of incidents like the Kaduna central senatorial election.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8211; The PRP has rejected the ruling of the elctiom tribunal on the petition filed by its Kaduna central senatorial candidate in the 2019 election &#8211; The party said the court decision was nothing but a Judicial coronation of fraud &#8211; Accoding to the PRP, the election tribunal failed to grant the party&#8217;s request for [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":62,"featured_media":1734,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,14],"tags":[38,96,195],"class_list":["post-14517","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-all-news","category-policy","tag-election","tag-kaduna","tag-shehu-sani"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.1 (Yoast SEO v27.0) -
