The Rivers State chapter of the All progressives Congress (APC), on wednesday, shunned inspection of materials at the state headquarters of the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission, INEC, insisting on forensic examination of the materials.

The party in a statement by its Publicity secretary, Mr Chris Finebone, said that they had to withdraw from the exercise because INEC allegedly flaunted the order of the court that it should allow it conduct forensic examination on the election materials.

“However, on the morning of today [yesterday), Julius Mba, announced that the INEC will no more allow the scanning and cropping of ballot papers and other materials which are at the centre of forensic examination and analysis as ordered by the tribunal.” Meanwhile, flanked by the Resident Electoral Commissioner, Dame Gecilia Khan and counsel to Governor Nyesom Wike, Mr Dan Oko, SAN, Mr Sam Wonosike of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, External counsel to INEC, Mr Julius Mba, said he was surprised that the APC was not around for the inspection exercise.

He said all parties, including INEC agreed to allow inspection of the various materials used for the governorship election at a meeting recently. He said that when the decision was documented allegedly on the insistence of representatives of the APC at a follow up meeting on Tuesday, they refused to sign their column.
