On the Tuesday, 31st of March, 2015, Orubebe,
acting as a polling agent for the People's
Democratic Party, made attempts at disrupting
the proceedings of the 2015 presidential election
collation. Orubebe, a former Minister of the Niger
Delta Affairs, alleged that INEC Chairman, Prof.
Attahiru Jega, had taken side with the All
Progressives Congress (APC).
On top of his voice, at the venue of the results
presentation, Orubebe shouted; “You sent a
committee to Rivers to probe what happened
there. We submitted petitions to you about Kano,
Jigawa, Katsina but you have not done anything
about our complaints. You cannot continue with
these results; we will not take it.” [5]
As Jega attempted to go on, Orubebe shouted,
“Mr. Jega, You cannot continue, go to your
office. You are partial. We don’t have any
confidence in you. We will not allow this. You
cannot continue. You must stop the results. [6]
His political party, the PDP, subsequently
dissociated itself from his actions. he
subsequently on the same day apologised to
Nigerians especially to the younger generation
over his infamous conduct by tendering
unreserved apology urging them not to follow in
his footsteps and explaining that he regretted his
action. He also claimed that his action was
sequel to the failure of Jega to treat the petition
of the PDP over some results in the North.
“That is why I anchored the ceasefire that is
now being enjoyed in the South South region. I
earnestly beg to be forgiven, in spite of the
embarrassment caused to our dear people. I am
indeed sorry , I was only pushed to the wall .
