The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, on Wednesday warned the Peoples Democratic Party and the other contestants in the Ekiti and Osun governorship elections against rigging, saying election riggers in the two states would be roasted.

The ex-governor of Lagos State said, No government that wants peoples votes will be doing what they are doing. They are already planning to rig the elections but be ready to protect your votes; nobody serves you freedom a la carte. It is going to be rig and roast.

We are prepared not to go to court but to drive you out. We will not take it anymore. If you mess up in Ekiti and Osun states, you will see our reactions. For every action, there must be a reaction.

Tinubu spoke at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, Oyo State, during his investiture as the chancellor of the university and the conferment of doctoral degree in Management Science on him.

The governorship poll in Ekiti is scheduled for June 21 while that of Osun comes up August 9.

The APC chieftain slammed the President Goodluck Jonathans government as married to corruption, saying the war against corruption by the government was a deceit.

He however said the leaders of the opposition party were ready to cooperate with the President and the Federal Government to find solution to the scourge of terrorism in the country.

The opposition leaders promise of cooperation came ahead of Thursdays (today) meeting of the President with the 36 state governors and security chiefs to discuss the escalating insurgence in the country.

The former Lagos State governor said that all Nigerians, irrespective of their political leanings or religious beliefs, must rise up against rising terrorism in the North-East, which he said had resulted in the deaths of many innocent citizens.
