APC tackles PDP over claim on INEC server
The ruling All Progressives Congress yesterday cautioned the Peoples Democratic Party against celebrating the alleged confirmation of the existence of a central election results transmission server by an Independent National Electoral Commission official.
The official also confirmed that the commission would put the central server to use for the presidential election. The tribunal, he said, would be guided by the electoral law and not by social media videos, which according to Ologbodiyan “speaks volumes about the reported denial by INEC of the existence of such a server for the 2019 general elections.”
Cautioning the PDP against rejoicing over unsubstantiated claims on the social media, Keyamo said the tribunal would be guided in its ruling by the electoral law.He said while INEC might have planned to transmit the results electronically, what matters most is if it actually did. “Without referring to any particular pending election petition, there’s a need to generally guide Nigerians not to gullibly fall for the fantasy created by any video circulating where INEC official spoke of INEC’s plan to electronically transmit results before the elections.
