” The statement added, “I ask the INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner , here, to quickly correct these anomalies. “The returning officer is a bloody liar, who may be acting a script. I enjoin him to return the money he may have collected from those who understand only rigging in election. “They should examine the returning officer to know his mental state. If he is not mental, then, he must be a criminal to have ever thought of that.
