Nigeria Presidential Election Ballot Papers Found In London by esosuo: 2:04pm On Feb 14, 2015
Breaking : 2015 Presidential Election
ballot papers found in London
 February 14, 2015
Ballots meant for the
Nigerian presidential election were found
yesterday at the premises of a local printer
in the Essex area of London .
Our sources said the sensitive election
materials, which ought to have arrived in
Nigeria earlier in the week , were unsecured
at the premises of Panther Printing
Services in London . SaharaReporters was
able to confirm that a Nigerian firm named
Cemoz International Limited had been
contracted to print some ballot papers for
the 2015 presidential elections.
A spokesman for the Independent National
Electoral Commission , Kayode Idowu ,
confirmed to SaharaReporters that Cemoz
International Limited was one of the firms
awarded the contract to print ballot
papers .
It appears that , upon getting the contract ,
Cemoz went shopping for printers in
London to print the ballot papers and then
contracted these other printers to serially
number the ballot papers . Although the
ballot papers for the presidential elections
for several southwest states were seen
lying around the premises of the printing
company in Essex , a staff at the company ,
speaking to a correspondent of
SaharaReporters , said the firm only had
the contract to print some of the ballot
papers for Jigawa State . Thinking that our
correspondent worked for Cemoz , the
representative of the Essex - based
company asked if we could give them
more jobs , adding that their company had
mastered how to print ballot papers .
SaharaReporters later obtained a bill of
lading showing that Cemoz planned to
ship the ballot papers to Nigeria a few
hours before February 14 th , the day
initially sect aside for the presidential
election. INEC subsequently postponed the
election for six weeks .
