Polls: APC chastises PDP, INEC; kicks against results from S’South States vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
ABUJA – The All Progressives Congress APC has kicked against the results of Saturday’s governorship election in states of the South South, alleging foul play by the Peoples Democratic Party PDP in connivance with the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC.
National Vice Chairman, South South of the APC, Ntufam Hilliard Eta who made the allegation Monday in Abuja said the ruling party ‘observed with great disappointment the ugly developments in the just concluded Governorship and State Houses of Assembly elections held on Saturday 9th of March, 2019, and the subsequent release of results by the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC for States of the South South geopolitical zone; viz: Akwa Ibom, Cross River and Delta States”.
“We wish to categorically state that the results released by INEC are not a reflection of the wishes and will of the people as they expressed at various polling units. We have received several complaints to the effect that in areas where our great Party held sway and won the elections at the unit levels, the various returning officers of the States, in connivance with agents of the PDP, will cancel results of such areas of our strength.
“In view of these obvious and aforementioned anomalies and double standards, the All Progressives Congress APC in the South South geopolitical zone, outrightly reject in its entirety the results declared by INEC for Akwa Ibom, Cross River and Delta States, respectively. We will do everything legitimately right to ensure that this injustice would not stand and the perpetrators are brought to book.
