Elections: APC has won, we’re just waiting for INEC to announce results – SGF boasts

Boss Mustapha, secretary to the government of the federation, says the APC has won the 2019 elections

– The SGF reportedly said that the ruling party is only waiting for the results to be announced by INEC

– Mustapha called out the PDP for lying about the APC and urged the people of Gombe South to vote for the ruling party

The secretary to the government of the federation, Boss Mustapha, says he believes the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has won the 2019 elections.

According to Punch, the SGF made the comment during the Gombe state governorship campaign rally at the Olusegun Obasanjo Stadium in Kaltungo, Gombe on Thursday, January 11.

TrackNews gathers that Mustapha reportedly said that the ruling party is only waiting for the results to be announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

He reportedly said: “We are only waiting for the announcement of the results. Just make sure you come out with your PVCs (Permanent Voter Cards) and cast your votes because the Peoples Democratic Party cannot deceive again.

“Today, the lies of PDP have finished because we are here in Kaltungo to uproot the roots of the PDP. In 2015, the PDP deceived you that our party, the APC was a Boko Haram party, they told you that if you voted for the APC, all of you would be Islamised, there was nothing they didn’t tell you.

“If Buhari plays politics of religion, he wouldn’t have appointed me the SGF because I am a Christian. If he were to be a religious politician, he wouldn’t have taken (Yemi) Osinbajo, a pastor, and made him the vice president.

“You people of Gombe South, come out and vote for the APC from the top down to the bottom.”

Meanwhile, Track News previously reported that Dr Tom Ohikere, national coordinator of APC Broom Platform, predicted that the ruling party would have a strong showing in the states controlled by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

He identified the states as: Delta, Akwa Ibom, Cross River, Rivers, Abia, Enugu and Ebonyi in the 2019 general elections; all in southeast and south-south region of the country.

Ohikere attributed his calculation to the personality of President Muhammadu Buhari, who he described as a blessing and an asset to the APC.
