What the petition asks
Nigeria has after several years of military rule, gone back to democracy since 1999 and this year will make 20 years of uninterrupted democracy in Nigeria. Our democracy is not the best, but it is growing and developing as people understand the rudiments of what democracy entails.
President Muhammadu Buhari is a danger to democracy. He doesn’t obey court order and act unilaterally. He has detained so many even when the courts have granted them bail, like Dasuki, El zazaki.
He also went for the president of the senate but was unsuccessful.
He Suspended the chief judge of Nigeria in clear violation of the constitution,
Buhari is very nepotic, he has a relative as collation Officer in the coming election, that is plans to rig the election. We want card reader used in 2019.
