Former Minister of Petroleum Prof. Tam David-West has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to arrest and prosecute Ijaw leader, Chief Edwin Clark, for alleged illegal possession of Direct Data Capture (DDC) machines.

The machines were allegedly found in Clark’s home in Warri, Delta State.

David-West made the call during an interview in Ibadan, Oyo State, yesterday.

Clark has explained that the commission is aware that the machines are in his home.

He said they were meant for Ayakoromor community in Burutu Local Government.

Clark said the community chose his house as its centre for the registration because many residents were displaced during the face-off between the Joint Military Task Force and militant leader John Togo last December.

David-West insisted that the Ijaw elder must be made to face the law.

He said: "Clark must be arrested and prosecuted because INEC has said that it does not keep machines in the homes of individuals.

"The commission needs to establish its credibility. Clark is one of the loudest supporters of President Goodluck Jonathan. Discovery of DDC machines in his home compromises the integrity of Mr President and his vow for free and fair election. He should be prosecuted."

On the exercise, David-West said the difficulties experienced were unimaginable.

He said they shook the hope of having free and fair elections in April.

The ex-minister said it took him three hours to register.

He wondered how professionals and students could spare such enormous time to register.

He said: "I am not a prophet of doom but I am very circumspect when it comes to socio-political analysis.

"It is said that a job well begun is half done. On the contrary, a job badly started is ominous for the entire project.

"I am not blaming Prof. Attahiru Jega at all; I’m blaming politicians, who have refused to change their style of politics."

No, but it has nothing to do with GEJ.
Edwin Clark, being a staunch tribalist he is wants to gain further power as he continues falsifying the true population of Ijaws in Delta State.

Beaf:

Damn!

This Edwin Clark is a ruthless fella.

Why does Clark like to do agbero politics all the time?

This old man should be putting his feet up like most first Republic guys, but he seems to be more skill in the art of skullduggery than even the new guys.

Clark and Ciroma - Both sides of the same coin!!! Hehehehehe.

The question we should ask


WHy is anything associated with PDP evil and demonic


band of blood suckers and ritualism

Edwin Clark is hated by most Igbos. He is one Niger Deltan that I have grown to dislike. But the man knows how to get his way though.

Answer: PDP itself is EVIL

If a youth corps member is living in your house and a visitor comes and finds a ddc machine in your home when the corper is somewhere is that an offence?

The question you should rather answer is

Are corpers allowed to take DDC Machine to their home or report to the INEC office after the day's work
