"This is our finest hour to get the PDP out and we must not miss
it. The rigging machine must be smashed on Saturday" he concluded. |

The Presidential Candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change(CPC),
General Muhammadu Buhari has described the allegation making the
rounds that he was responsible for the inability of his party and the
ACN to forge an alliance ahead of Saturday polls as baseless and
unfounded. |

While stressing that the decisive moment
Nigeria enters this weekend requires sobriety on the part of
leaders who care about the fate of the suffering people of
Nigeria,General Buhari said his response was only to set the
record straight about this misinformation.
He explained that he embraced the renewed talks between the two
parties in the best interest of millions of Nigerians yearning for
change with great enthusiasm.
"The talks however ran into difficulties when the ACN insisisted
the only conditions for agreement was that they must produce the
Vice President. By the electoral laws,this was virtually impossible
before this election. We suggested that they should let us jointly
go into the elections and jointly form the government after our
victory.But our friends were not ready to take us on our honour
and went to the media".
While regretting the inability to get the parties to agree to
harness their electoral fortunes before Saturday, General Buhari
said the task at hand is to get rid of the PDP at the polls
through voters mass turnout and eternal vigilance from
accreditation to the final announcement of results.
He called on millions of his supporters across Nigeria to troop
out en masse on Saturday and vote him in as the President:
"This is our finest hour to get the PDP out and we must not miss
it. The rigging machine must be smashed on Saturday" he concluded.
