A member of the House of Representatives Shamsudeen Dambazau yesterday has said that the presidential candidates of the New Nigerian People’s Party , Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and the Labour Party , Mr. Peter Obi are spoilers for the 2023 presidential election.
He noted that the spoiler effect where a particular candidate’s presence in an election draws votes from a major candidate with similar politics, thereby causing a strong opponent of both or several to win. The lawmaker while speaking about the LP presidential candidate said “appearance can be deceiving, the APC has been tried and tested and even the PDP and most of the people there either come from APC and PDP, and PDP and APC.
“Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the man that has the gravitas, experience to take care of all these issues that are disturbing Nigerians, be them trivial, be them controversial, be them sensitive, to be able to put people together to be able to douse all tensions in different sectors, in different regions of NIgeria”
“Security agencies and candidates for the forthcoming general election to come together and put all apparatus in place to guarantee a violent free polls” The son of a former Nigerian Chief of Army Staff, Abdulrahman Danbazzau said insecurity which started heightening since 2008 has been adequately tackled by the APC administration but more needs to be done by the security agencies who should have a target set for them.
