The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has
declared the Adamawa state governorship election as inconclusive.
The All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) whose candidates are the major contenders in the election have been
trading blames.
The PDP has accused the INEC and the APC of attempts to
alter the results to favour the latter.
The PDP claimed that there was a plot to alter the election
results.
Speaking at a press conference in Abuja on Monday, Iyorchia
Ayu, national chairman of the PDP, asked the INEC to resist any attempt to
“alter the electoral outcome”.
Ayu claimed that the results gathered by PDP agents from all
the polling units in the state show that the party won the election.
“From the results obtained by our party and independent
observers directly from the polling units, the PDP recorded a sweeping victory
in most of the states where the elections were held,” he said.
Earlier, Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the PDP,
alleged that the INEC was creating tension in Adamawa by failing to conclude
the collation of results of the election in the state.
So far, Ahmadu Fintiri, the incumbent governor and candidate
of the PDP, has won 13 LGAs, leaving Aisha Binani, gubernatorial candidate of
the APC with seven.
The results from Fufore LGA, the only one left, were yet to
be collated. Thugs had reportedly snatched the results sheet of the LGA.
INEC officials said that they were working to remedy the
situation by getting all the data that have been uploaded on the iRev.
