) and national chairman of Allied People’s Movement , Yusuf Mamman Dantalle, on Tuesday, March 19, said that factionalization and the imposition of candidates within political parties were orchestrated by what he termed as notorious godfathers and reactionary forces from other political factions, aimed at securing dominance in the electoral process.
Dantalle, who spoke on the need to improve the nation’s electoral process that will drastically reduce post-election petitions and litigations, said the council will engage leaders of Political Parties on strict adherence to internal party democracy in the nomination of candidates for various elective offices which will in turn reduce pre- elections litigations.
Dantelle stressed that the task of rebuilding the nation is the responsibility of the populace irrespective of political affiliations, saying, “We should reaffirm our faith in the fatherland and rededicate ourselves to the service of the nation. He said: “The lessons from the general election, off-season governorship elections, and rerun polls will give the Commission and Political Parties yet another opportunity to review and reexamine the Constitution, Electoral Act, the guidelines and regulations for the conduct of elections, and make necessary amendments that will strengthen the electoral process and integrity of elections conducted.
