The Peter Obi Presidential Campaign Council, PCC, has demanded the suspension of the ongoing announcement of the results of Saturday’s presidential elections.
The campaign wants the irregularities in Imo, Edo, Rivers, and Northern States resolved immediately, advising the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to redeem its image.
A statement on Monday by the Head of Obi-Datti Media Office, Diran Onifade said Nigerians had been eager for a new order, hopeful in the promise of INEC and the Federal Government that the process will be credible.
The spokesperson said after careful consideration of field reports from locations around the country, the Labour Party, LP, has first-hand evidence of criminal conspiracies, tricks and irregularities by some INEC and security officials.
Onifade said they also have videos of vicious attacks by political thugs, as well as clear evidence of inducement by politicians, one of whom was caught with half a million dollars in cash.
“Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Council is of the firm conviction, that the processes and practices as carried on by INEC, and as permitted by some security agencies, do not in the most reasonable minimum, meet the required standards of credibility and were not fundamentally, free and fair.
“We further present, that a compromised election cannot produce genuine results nor can they be lawful, or in accordance with the constitution and the electoral Act 2022.
“The Amended Electoral Act says that Election Results are to be uploaded to the central server from the Polling Units. What is going on is practically Manual Collation that makes no sense at all,” the campaign added.
