Elections May not be Conducted in 2023 – Secondus

The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Uche Secondus, has said elections may not hold in 2023.

Secondus speaking at the opening session of the caucus meeting of the party in Abuja said that there might be no election in 2023 if the military continued to participate in elections as they did in the just concluded presidential and National Assembly elections.

Secondus lamenting the interference of the military in the 2019 presidential election, quizzed if such will repeat on March 9th during the governorship elections across the country.

He further urged the Independent National Electoral Commission to ensure that the Saturday’s elections were free, fair, transparent and credible.

He said, “On February 23, 2019, how will history judge you (Buhari)? How will the next generation judge you? In fact, there may not be election in 2023, it may just be an announcement because if you have the military on your side, you do not need the people, you do not need to campaign. All you need to do is to put the figure on election day and announce. Is that what is going to happen again on March 9?”
