Obasanjo Appeals To Voters To Get Their PVCs, Says God Who Saved Nigeria From Abacha Will Help Her In 2019 Elections.
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has called on voters to use their PVC’s as instruments of open doors in 2019.
Obasanjo, while speaking to members of his Coalition for Nigeria movement(CNM), pointed out that God who helped Nigeria against the government of late Sani Abacha will come to Nigeria’s aid in 2019.
In his words:
“Some people believe that those that are in position, whether they are doing well or not, they must continue to be there. But when we say they must not only be there, they will want to fight back. They will hold many things to wreak havoc, but everybody must be prepared. It will not be easy to wrest powers from them. If you think it will be easy to liberate Nigeria, you are deceiving yourself.”
“But the God that did it yesterday will do it again today. Remember a particular leader who had a desire to transmit from military uniform to elected president. We had a situation that we had five political parties and the five parties nominated one person as candidate for presidency. If only his nuclear family had voted for him, he would have won.”
“But our God is wonderful. God laughed. Now, God is laughing. When the time came, God revealed that He’s God. He is the omnipotent, omnipresent and eternal, who can do all things and who can make all things possible. But if we are leaving things to God, we have to do our own side.”
Obasanjo who noted that God has started his work ahead of the 2019 elections, urged voters not to be afraid or intimidated as they cast their votes.
” Some people may be laughing at you and make jest of you, don’t be bothered with that. Listen, permanent voter’s cards (PVCs) are your instruments. If you have not collected yours, go and collect it.
If you are not yet registered, go and register. Let us tell them in all urban and rural areas that PVCs are what we will use. They are the key to open the doors. Don’t be afraid or be discouraged; they will try to intimidate you individually or collectively. For me, I don’t think there is anyone that can intimidate me.” He added.
