Supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Grand Alliance on Sunday protested the outcome of the elections for Abia Central Senatorial District.

The protesters, who occupied different sections of the sidewalks in front of Umuahia North Local Government secretariat – the collation centre for Abia Central senatorial district – chanted solidarity songs in support of their various candidates. There was no physical confrontation from both camps, except for the fact that they hurled abuses at each other.

Official results had not yet been released as of press time, but speculations are rife that the PDP senatorial candidate and current governor of Abia State, T. A. Orji, is having a rough ride. Some party agents who spoke to our correspondent said he lost in his polling unit. There was however, no figure to back the claims.

Suspicion that all was not well first emerged early on Sunday morning when an APC party agent, Godwin Uwanuakwa, raised an alarm that the figures on the result sheet from Isingwu ward in Umuahia North Local Government Area of the state was different from the figures he had on the result duplicate in his possession, hence, he declined signing the result sheet.

Uwanuakwa, who also alleged that the figures were altered in favour of the PDP said, “We followed the results from the polling unit to the ward up to this point. When we got here last night, we were not allowed in, only PDP agents were allowed entry. That is why we were not able to observe the collation exercise here last night.”

INEC collation officers admitted the discrepancy and obvious alteration on the result sheet which was not duly signed. They blamed the youth corps member that presided over the exercise for the error. The APC and APGA agents, who protested the discrepancy, were asked to write to the commission for redress.

Result sheets from other wards were also contested, raising the fears that the ruling party might be up to something. Meanwhile, a local government transition chairman was seen patrolling the premises. An INEC official, while responding to an inquiry from a party agent as to what the chairman was doing inside the collation hall said, “Don’t you know he is a government official?”

The avalanche of complaints bordering on discrepancies from various result sheets forced the INEC officials to order all party agents out of the collation hall, including journalists. Tear gas was used on those who resisted the order. Policemen were also instructed to barricade the council gate allowing entry to only selected persons.

In the course of the protests, some party agents mainly from APGA, LP and APC resolved not to sign the result sheet. An INEC staff, whom they had related the decision to was heard telling them that their signatures are not required to authenticate the results.

P.S. Ignore the poster below,he is a Cun.t

Which time APGA start to dey drag sef, that political party Don dey seek attention since 1960. Fighting can't solve any problem. Just chill and relax till the result is announced..

JonThan would surprise people
Jonathan till 2019

Apga candidate should contest this result..i am sure he has enough evidence for that...abia electorates should know that this is what pdp plans for guber elections and prepare to counter it....meanwhile it is abia central not south.

good for them they adopted GEJ as the presidential candidate.
they should have known better but better still pdp just rigging
SS AND SE SHOULD BE CANCELED

Apga should blame themselves jonathat has even betrayed them b4 election is over. He battling is own no time for you people carry ur cross alone..allowing orji to win...gosh pukes..

This is exactly the same thing I said on my thread. Orji lost woefully but rigged his way out. He wants to make sure APGA doesn't clinch the state.
The courts will settle it after all.

Why are APGA complaining? I thought APGA is a branch of PDP. You guys sold your soul to PDP for a pot of soup. A vote for APGA is a vote for PDP. Rochas was smart to leave APGA because he knows they are not a serious party. Anyway, Congrats senator Ochendo. I hope you continue your "Transformation" in Abia State. Vote PDP in the governorship election in Abia State for continue "Transformation"

Jonathan has betrayed APGA. Same thing is happening in Anambra state. They have been used and dumped.

Too bad!

I don't pity APGA an inch, they pitch tent with the devil what result are they expecting? For a party with sitting governor and other serving candidate in the house and Senate to form alliance with their rival because of money knowing fully well that their action constitute anti party developments .It shows a party without vision ,it also depicts a party lacking distinct political ideology. They want their supporters to vote their party candidates for house of Rep and Senate but vote PDP for presidency. The master rigger shortchanged them they are now crying like babies. lazy and Senseless politicians who instead of working to extend their support base choose to opt for the expedient option. I just pity the other party involved. Mind you Let them rig very well Jonathan will still not win.

.

Lol.... this really really unbelievable... APGA & PDP

Ok

Vote not Fight.
Election no be war.
#iRepChange.

#Peace.

Say NO to violence

Ok oooo, I laugh when I saw Enugu result, you don't even need a suitsayer to tell you that result is falsified. I imagine in a whole state a major opposition has just about 14 thausand and no invalid vote or rejected votes. while in the home town of the opposition candidate his opponent got close to 5000. That was when I knew Jonathan is dumb and his supporter/riggers are also dumb.

K

Say no to election violence

Ok

That serves them right when they are affiliating with themselves APGA will soon die after 2015 election

Moi point is must PDP rig, let's av a free nd fair election @ least dis 1
