At the end of its Joint Leadership Meeting held today, the 17th of February 2015 at the Shehu Musa Yar'dua Centre, the All Progressives Congress resolved as follows:
1. Immediate and necessary disciplinary action for all individuals that were involved in the subversion of democracy in the 21st June Ekiti Governorship Election as revealed by the videos released by Sahara Reporters. They include
(a) Brigadier General Aliyu Momoh who should be immediately investigated by the Military authorities.
(b) The Hon Minister of Police Affairs, Alhaji Jelili Adesiyan who should immediately be relieved of his ministerial appointment.
(c) The former minister of state for Defence Affairs Senator Musliu Obanikoro whose name has just been sent to the Senate for confirmation again as a minister of the Federal Republic must not be confirmed by the Senate and must be barred henceforth from holding any public office.
2. That line with the Court of Appeal decision of yesterday that upheld an earlier judgement of the Sokoto Federal High Court Judgement that ruled as illegal the participation of the military in the electoral process, the military should be kept away from election duties henceforth.
3.That the reschedule election dates of the 28th of March and 11th of April remain sancrosact as the party will not tolerate any further shift
4. That the use of the card reader for the 28th of March and 11th of April is non-negotiable, as contrary to the misinformation being disseminated the use of card reader is not synonymous with electronic voting.
