We Don’t Know If Army Rigged Elections – INEC by akinbode1(m): 8:00pm On Mar 18, 2019 |
The Independent National Electoral Commission says it does not know if soldiers rigged elections in the River State governorship poll which was marred by violence. The INEC National Commissioner for Information and Voter Education, Festus Okoye, said this during an interview on Channels TV’s Sunrise Daily programme on Monday. Okoye explained that after the Rivers State elections were suspended, INEC went on a fact finding mission to the state and based on some discoveries, the commission would be holding a meeting with the heads of security agencies. When asked if INEC investigation showed that the military rigged elections, Okoye said, “The fact finding mission that we sent to Rivers established the fact that the military intervened in some places. We saw them in INEC office and they agreed that they were at some collation centres on election day. “We did not go out to establish the fact about who rigged elections or who did not rig. What we want to ensure is that we complete collation of results in Rivers.” He added, “We made a determination that the army got involved in the electoral process but whether their involvement in the process was to rig the elections, I am not in a position to make a determination on that.” The INEC boss said there would be a meeting with all stakeholders including traditional and religious leaders with a view to ensuring that the electoral process in Rivers State will be peaceful. When asked if the All Progressives Congress would be invited to the meeting since the APC is not on the ballot, Okoye said there was nothing wrong with inviting the party. He added, “The APC is a stakeholder and when we are holding a stakeholders’ meeting, we will invite all registered political parties. So, we will invite them.” European Union observers had last week lamented that soldiers prevented them from monitoring the March 9 elections in Rivers State. The British Government had also lamented the role the army played in the state, accusing the security agency of undermining the job of INEC. While the army has set up a committee to look into the allegations, it dismissed the allegations levelled against it, insisting that it was hoodlums in camouflage that disrupted the elections. https://punchng.com/we-dont-know-if-army-rigged-elections-inec/amp/

Same INEC that was accusing the Nigerian army agents of militarizing election in Rivers state, assault on its officials, seizure of election results & disruption of collation processes? |

INEC is just being politically correct. The Nigerian Army was used to snatch ballot and thumbprint in Rivers state. Anyway, Wike will come out on top. 1 Like |

Did you just say votes would not count? Then you are confirming the fact Wike actually is the one Rivers people voted for,and that the APC just want to force him out. you should rather be ashamed for your party. It is unfortunate you are a youth. Fuckyoumod: 3 Likes |

Up till now, those cowards are still blocking a major road in Port Harcourt. The political calculation of Amaechi to use AAC to unseat Wike is scientifically, political, morally and riggably impossible 1 Like |

Politicians must be careful not to desecrate the integrity of the military institution over electoral irregularities. According to report, there was a clear case of violence and the soldiers as were deployed to maintain peace, quickly despatched off with the killers squad being sponsored by Gov. Wike. It was rather a pre planned attack carried out by Wike's thugs in camouflage assigned to do his bidding. -Lion |
