Gov. Wike disclosed that Former President Goodluck Jonathan gave room for international observers in 2015, therefore the same procedure should take place in 2019.

Below is a statement released by Nyesom Wike,

We want to call on the international community not to be afraid. They should not be deterred by the so-called threat by El-Rufai.

They should come out and monitor these elections. If anybody rigs, they should sanction Nigeria. They should start first by imposing sanctions on El-Rufai. They should cancel all his visas 
In 2015, the international community monitored the elections and no threats were issued by the Jonathan administration. 
In 2015, the International Community monitored the elections and Jonathan lost. He did not fight and handed over peacefully. He said that his ambition was not worth the blood of any Nigerian. These elections must be free and fair.
El-Rufai and the APC Federal Government have resorted to issuance of threats because they are afraid of imminent defeat. 
El-rufai is afraid because he knows he has nothing to account for his stewardship in Kaduna.That’s why he can open his mouth to attack international community. I want international community to disregard this threat by El-Rufai as empty.
