General Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma (rtd) has alleged that there is a plot to rig the general elections in some parts of the country, This Day reports.
Danjuma made this known at the inauguration of a medical laboratory at Rufkatu Danjuma Maternity Hospital in Takum, Taraba state yesterday.
The former Chief of Army Staff claimed that there are plans to cause disorder in some parts of the state as an attempt to manipulate the elections.
Recall that former president Olusegun Obasanjo had claimed that Buhari led government and INEC are planning to rig the forth coming elections.
He encouraged Nigerians to be careful this time and protect their votes.
He said: “We must be careful, if we want another four years for our able governor Architect Darius Ishaku. We must work hard for peace in addition to just registering and obtaining our Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs).
“There is no need for us to fight ourselves because they will use police and soldiers to destabilise us and rig elections. It is in our best interest to ensure there is peace. We will suffer all provocation, because there is going to be enough provocation between now and the time of election.

“Those behind this plot know that they will not win election if there is peace. I want to call on you not to sell your votes because you will be selling your birthright if you do so.
” He appealed to everyone to maintain peace so that there will be no surprises and so that there can be peaceful elections and there is no postponement as a result of instability.
“The last time, even when Darius political party was the ruling party, he was made to go into a run-off three times. This time, they have perfected rigging. Once you don’t win the first time they will sit down and write the result in the run-off for their candidate. This is the primitive democracy we have in Nigeria today,” Danjuma added
