Breaking News!!! Election
Tribunal in Akwa Ibom
State: Update!
Sources have confirmed
that the much awaited
Forensic Machines arrived
Akwa Ibom State a few
days ago from wherever
they were imported. Today
(June, 21, 2011), based on
arrangements previously
agreed upon between ACN
and INEC, which was
ordered by the Tribunal,
the forensic scientists and
the ACN lawyers went to
INEC office in Uyo to test
the ballot papers in order
to determine the accuracies
and veracities of all the
thumbs-prints that INEC
and PDP claimed to have
come from the voters of
Godswill Akpabio during
the April 26, 2011,
gubernatorial election.
When the ACN lawyers and
the Forensic Scientists
entered the office of INEC,
INEC officials told them
that ballot papers were not
available--officials denied
the agency's possession of
the materials. On enquiries
as to where the papers
could be located, INEC told
them to go to each of the
Local Government Area
Headquarters for retrieval
of the materials.
It could be recalled that
since the month of May,
2011, when INEC and PDP
knew about the intention
of Senator Akpan
Udoedehe and the ACN to
file petitions with the
Election Tribunal to
challenge the outcome of
the April 26, 2011
gubernatorial election, INEC
and PDP have been busy
forging documents in
preparation as evidence to
counter the challenge.
It could also be recalled
that INEC and PDP claimed
that the total number of
votes for Akpabio was over
900,000. The purpose of
using the forensic
machines to read the
thumb prints is to verify if
all the more than 900,000
votes were genuine and
were actually from those
who had previously been
registered and considered
eligible to vote in Akwa
Ibom State. Such findings
would dispel the
speculations among Akwa
Ibom people and claims by
the opposition that
Godswill Akpabio and the
PDP in Akwa Ibom State
had fronted minors to cast
votes and in some Local
Government Areas (if not in
all of them), there were,
and still are, strongly held
suspicions that some
voters voted several times,
thereby inflating the
number of votes for
Akpabio.
All the analysts and
observers contacted have
concluded that for INEC
officials to claim that the
agency has none of the
demanded documents in
its custody is a sign that
they (the officials) have not
completed forging the
documents. Therefore,
official's denial that the
materials are not in the
custody of the agency is
nothing but a delaying
tactics.
Reports say when ACN
lawyers filed a complaint
to the Tribunal regarding
the refusal of INEC to
release the court-
mandated material, the
Tribunal Judges issued a
statement, which says that
they cannot force INEC to
produce documents it
claims not to have, but in
the absence of such
documents, INEC must sign
"Not Available, or simply N/
A" for each forms or for any
of the requested
documents. The implication
is that if INEC refuses to
produce the mandated
documents for the
opposition to use as it sees
fit in a court of law, then
the court will not have a
choice but to issue its
ruling based on the
evidence presented by the
ACN. Such evidence, which
sources say ACN has in its
possession, include
"doctored" voting
materials, videos and still-
pictures featuring rigging,
and other evidence yet to
be presented to and
explained at the Tribunal.
Another developing story is
that the 22-man panel set
up by President Jonathan
to examine the cause or
causes of election violence
in Akwa Ibom State has
commenced its work.
Today, the panel is said to
have visited Ikot Ekpene to
gather evidence. It may sit
in Uyo by tomorrow, June
22, 2011.
