Edo 2020: Don’t Bow To Pressure, PDP Begs INEC Chairman
PDP has called out APC for mounting pressure on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to alter the results of the governorship election in various parts of Edo state.
According to a statement by on Saturday by Kola Ologbondiyan, the national publicity secretary of the party, asked Mahmood Yakubu, chairman of INEC, not to “fall for this pressure in the interest of the unity and cohesion of our country”.
“We have been informed that the INEC Chairman has come under intense pressure from the APC to allow the replacement of results declared in the riverine areas of Edo State in order to jerk up figures for the APC,” the statement read.
“The PDP has also observed that INEC’s virtual portal is increasingly becoming unstable. We also have information on ploys being undertaken to replace results in Fugar and other adjoining local governments, all in Edo North.
“We have the results as already declared in the various polling units and we urge INEC to confine itself to these results already declared by its officials at the polling units.
“We invite Nigerians to closely monitor results being declared on the INEC virtual portal to ensure the wishes of the people of Edo State are not altered overnight.”
