The All Progressives Congress, APC, has expressed
a serious doubt in the ability of the Independent
National Electoral Commission, INEC, to organise a
free and fair governorship election in Anambra on
16 November, going by recent developments.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by its
Interim National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai
Mohammed, the party said the top officials whom
INEC plans to send to oversee the election are
card-carrying members of the PDP, which has
compromised their role as unbiased umpires.
It named the Commissioners as Mr. Lawrence
Nwuruku, the National Commissioner of INEC in
charge of the South-East, and Mrs. Gladys
Nwafor, the second INEC Commissioner from the
South-East.
“Mr. Nwuruku was the Chairman of the PDP in
Ebonyi State, while Mrs. Nwafor had worked
closely with First Lady Patience Jonathan as a
grassroots mobilizer. These officials cannot, in all
honesty, be expected to be unbiased, because
they have been compromised by their
antecedents.
“If INEC indeed has any hope of organizing a free,
fair and transparent election in Anambra on 16
November, it must immediately shelve the plan to
send these highly-partisan and heavily-
compromised officials to supervise the election.
Any action short of that will open INEC to
accusations of bias – which is not what any
umpire wants,’’ APC said.
The party also said some actions taken by INEC in
recent times have called to question its ability to
stay above the fray as far as the Anambra election
is concerned.
“For example, the voters’ register for Anambra in
2011 had 2.1 million names, which came down to
1.8 million after a review. However, despite
continuous registration by INEC, the names came
down to 1.7 million! This kind of chicanery is only
possible under a circumstance in which deliberate
efforts are being made to depopulate the voters
in areas where the opposition has an edge.
“We are therefore left with no choice than to call
on the National Assembly to seek explanations
from INEC on the hanky- panky. This is necessary
to ensure that the election is not rigged by the
same body saddled with ensuring that it is
transparently-organized,’’ it said.
APC said it is closely monitoring all the processes
leading to the election, since the success of any
poll is not limited to actions taken on the election
day alone, with a view to ensuring that no
candidate is short-changed by the very body that
has the responsibility to ensure a level-playing
field for all.
