Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has been defending his allegations of alleged plot by the police and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), to rig the forthcoming re-run polls in the state.
The governor who explained that he is not out to incite the public against the police and INEC, said he chose to make his findings known in order to forestall the breakdown of law and order during the polls.
He was speaking on Channels Television’s breakfast programme, Sunrise Daily.
According to him, the electoral body “has been unable to answer these certain questions:
1. How are we sure you are going to be impartial?
2. INEC has said that for the Assistant Presiding Officers, that they took the list from the universities; who compiled the list from the universities?
3. INEC should prove to those who are anticipating that the election would be free and fair.
The governor believes that the so-called list of university students is only a fraud, and has caused them to raise eye brows on the authenticity of the re-rerun elections.
He claimed that a number of names included on the list were clearly not students of the University of Port Harcourt as initially stated by INEC.
But the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, over the weekend warned the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike against making remarks capable of inciting violence during the Saturday’s legislative re-run election in the state.
