The All Progressives Congress, APC, Rivers State Chapter has expressed
shock over comments by Chairman of the Independent Electoral Commission,
INEC, Prof Attahiru Jega, suggesting that the massive electoral fraud
perpetrated during the last general elections in Rivers State was not as
huge as being reported.
The party, in a statement signed by its publicity secretary, Chris Finebone said, ‘It is sad that despite the fact that the entire gamut of that exercise is now the subject of serious dispute at the Rivers State Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Abuja, Prof Jega will, at the slightest excuse, attempt to publicly downplay the anomie his staff led by Dame Gesila Khan connived with the PDP to perpetrate in Rivers State last March 28 and April 11, 2015.’
For the APC, Jega needs not be reminded that the kind of unguarded utterances he has been making about those elections are subjudicial to the matters before the Tribunal.
“We sincerely sympathise with Prof Jega for struggling to shore up his reputation and paint himself as a superhuman before the eyes of the world. However, we believe that the Professor should be satisfied with the modest achievements the INEC has made under his watch and not try to forcefully lay claim to having performed extremely well.”
