The All Progressives Congress
Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCPCO) has said that committing the
fate of elections into the hands of the military is a coup against the
people. The APCPCO’s position is coming on the heels of assertions by
the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC),
Prof Attahiru Jega, on the Senate floor on Wednesday that the service
chiefs will have to ratify the March 28 date for the presidential
election and also express readiness to deploy troops for the polls
before they could hold.
