Akpabio Vows To Challenge His Loss In Court.
, that he won the poll and was optimistic that the court would make the final decision.
“It’s a temporary setback,” the lawmaker insisted. “That is why there are processes. For instance, if you feel that you were cheated or there was wrong collation, you have recourse to the courts. I did not fail; I can’t fail.” Akpabio added, “I believe strongly that there must have been some wrong collation somewhere. Those things will be corrected. We have processes in the election. It’s from one stage; we have to do registration, vote and collate.”
The announcement of the election was made under controversial circumstances, as it was moved to the INEC headquarters in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital, instead of Ikot-Ekpene, because of the tension following the election in the area.
