The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has advised the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led Federal Government to ensure that the 2019 general elections are free and fair.
Uche Secondus said that free, fair, credible and transparent elections were guarantee for national unity and peace.
“Nigeria is the largest black nation in the world and we are saying that there is a great fear on whether Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) will really conduct free and fair elections.
“Free and fair elections are the only guarantee for national unity; it is the only guarantee for peace, and the government of the day must take it serious.
“We conducted free and fair elections in 2015 and we lost. We handed over and conceded defeat but what we are seeing so far has not given us the confidence at all that they can conduct free and fair elections.
“The entire country is worried, not only PDP. It is across the board; all the other political parties are very worried because of what is happening today in the country,” he said.
“As a party, we are here to play by the rules, by our constitution and the constitution of our country.
“We are witnesses to the past where disobedience to the Constitution of our country bred crisis.”
