The presidential running mate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Rotimi Amaechi, has accused politicians of stealing result sheets at unit level during polls.
Amaechi warned that politicians steal result sheets at the
risk of the lives of ad-hoc staff of the Independent National Electoral
Commission, INEC.
Addressing a group of youths, the former Rivers State
governor said: “On the day of election in your Ward and in your Unit, you finish voting, you stand for the counting. I
have been a politician all my life, I have never worked anywhere before.
“I left university in 1987 and joined politics that same
year, so you won’t teach me, unit level is where they vote.
“Politicians steal result sheets at the unit level risking
the life of the INEC adhoc officer. As he comes, show us the result sheet or
you are not going because politicians don’t care about your life, some parents
must stop their children who want to be adhoc staff.”
He charged Nigerians to always insist on their votes being
counted at the polling units during elections.
He added: “If there is a result sheet, we will queue up and
when they finish counting, if you don’t upload it you are not going
“If we finish the election and there are one million persons
in front of INEC and trust me if you do all these, ADC can mobilize one million
people to INEC office.
“Don’t forget that there is an election that would have been
rigged in Nigeria, the election that made Kwankwaso governor, how many of you
remember that, when they looked outside and saw 500 persons what did they do,
they announced.”
