It is even more unpardonable considering that it is coming from the chairman of the ruling party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn countries of the world, a ruling party is expected to be in the vanguard of advancing democracy, but that is no longer the case with the APC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is now confirmed that the Adamu-led APC is behind the rumoured plot to oust the INEC boss from office.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, his plot has failed; he has exposed himself as we the Nigerian youths will not let that happen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe 2023 general election is between the forces of darkness that have held this country down for decades and the future generation. There will be no hiding place for failed politicians and a million Adamu cannot frustrate that resolve.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The youth group urged the INEC to \u201cremain steadfast as the masses are with you. The commission should not bow to the wicked pressure as we shall march the evil forces; we shall resist the wicked forces who do not mean well for Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe youths will shut down this country should anyone attempt to toy with the future of Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe highest legacy President Muhammdu Buhari has bequeathed for this country is signing the amended Electoral Act and we shall give the INEC all the support to ensure its full application.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe also urge President Buhari to stand with the masses and be wary of the likes of Adamu who are pursuing a selfish agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Okwu urged security agencies and the international community to \u201cplace Adamu and his collaborators on watchlist as they are poised to destroy Nigeria to realise their selfish agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
