Alhaji Mai Mala Buni, National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has said that he expects a congratulatory message from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP should his party thrump them(PDP) in 2015 elections.
During an interview session with LEADERSHIP, when asked if Fayemi Kayode conceeding defeat in the just concluded elections does not send warning signals, Buni said, "If you listened carefully to the governor, he said “if that was the wish of Ekiti people so be it” and he conceded in realization of possible conflicts that may follow if he disagrees with the result of the election.
You see the mass deployment of security personnel in the Ekiti election in which members of our party were harassed and intimidated leaves much to be desired. We have always urged security agencies to maintain neutral stand; they must avoid actions that portray them as partisan and supporting a particular political party.
They should promote a level playing ground for all parties and abide by the rules of engagement to safeguard the image of security organizations and the country.
Our experience in the Ekiti election has made it necessary that the security authorities must check their men against repeat of such unfortunate intimidation in future elections.Now, in spite of all these, the outgoing governor and APC candidate conceded defeat and congratulated the PDP candidate. This is a new page in the history of Nigerian politics. This action must be commended and emulated by PDP. We equally expect the presidency and PDP to concede and congratulate us when we defeat them in 2015.
