APC WARNS AGAINST ANNOUNCING OF FAKE POLL RESULTS

The All Progressives Congress has warned against any attempt to
tamper with the results of the elections that were concluded
nationwide on Saturday, saying Nigerians have voted peacefully and
massively and they know who they have voted for.
In a statement issued in Lagos on Sunday by its National Publicity
Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said it has the authentic
results from every polling unit where voting took place on Saturday,
and will not accept anything contrary to those signed results.
It decried the dangerous kite now being flown by the PDP, through some
of their paid media channels, seeking to appropriate unearned
victories across the nation.
”We have always said we will accept the result of any free, fair and
transparent elections. We stand by that avowal. However, what we will
not accept – and which we are sure Nigerians themselves will reject –
is any move to rewrite the results and thwart the will of the people
under any guise. We will not accept that.
”We have heard of the desperate moves to cancel the results in areas
where the APC has beaten the PDP embarrassingly. Nigerians will
definitely not accept that,” APC said.
The party said it is aware of the ongoing efforts to force Electoral
Officers and Presiding Officers in Imo State, some of whom are being
picked up by the military as we write, to rewrite the results of the
elections in the state.
”We have the results from every polling unit in Imo State and we know
that we have won in over 80 per cent in the presidential election. So
there must be no shenanigans,” it warned.
APC also said the same attempts are being made in Sokoto, Enugu,
Ekiti, Ondo, Lagos and other states, wondering why anyone will be seeking
to reverse the results that are already settled.
