Sen. Akume, APC plotting to use military to manipulate, rig Benue election – Benue govt vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
Benue state government has the alarm over plots by the All Progressives Congress, APC, to use military personnel manipulate and rig next weekend’s governorship and State Houses of Assembly election in the state.
“Senator Akume boasted during the meeting that there will be no voting in Benue State on March 9 as the APC rigging machinery would ensure that the party got massive illegal votes allotted to it. “We find it necessary to draw the attention of security forces and other stakeholders to these threats by APC so that urgent preventive measures can be taken to guarantee free and fair conduct of the elections.
“We only demand a level playing field in the coming elections We urge INEC to be neutral and fair to all parties. Anything short of this will be unacceptable.”
