ElectionResults: INEC Directs Aggrieved Parties To Seek Legal Redress | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

The Independent National Electoral Commission has sent a message to aggrieved political parties over presidential results.

INEC chairman, Mahmood Yakubu told those parties who seem unsatisfied with the electoral process to seek legal redress of the matter.

This came after the concerned parties called for the resignation of Yakubu due to an alleged compromise in the collation process.

The national collation agents for the Peoples Democratic Party, Dino Melaye and Emeka Ihedioha on Monday walked out of the International Conference Centre in Abuja over alleged rigging.

Agents of some other parties, including those of the Social Democratic Party, Labour Party, and Action Democratic Party had pointed out the same views.

They had accused INEC of violating the Electoral Act by going ahead with the result collation and announcement despite not uploading the results on the INEC Result Viewing portal.

Addressing the matter on Tuesday, the Chief Press Secretary to the INEC Chairman, Rotimi Oyekanmi, said that “results emanating from the states point to a free, fair, and credible process.”

He however urged parties to allow the conclusion of the electoral process and if not satisfied, they could approach the court.

He said:
“The call by the Labour Party and the Peoples Democratic Democratic Party on the INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu to resign is misplaced. The allegation by Dino Melaye that the INEC chairman allocated scores to parties is unfounded and irresponsible.

“At the same time, contrary to the insinuation by both parties, results emanating from the states point to a free, fair and credible process.

“There are laid down procedures for aggrieved parties or candidates to follow when they are dissatisfied about the outcome of an election. Such procedures do not include calling on the INEC chairman to resign or for the election to be cancelled.

“To be sure, aggrieved parties are free to approach the courts to ventilate their concerns and wait for the matter to be resolved. Making inciting comments capable of causing violence or unrest is unacceptable.

“The 2023 general election processes are in their final stages of completion. It is only fair for aggrieved parties to allow the conclusion of the process and approach the courts with their evidences to pursue their cases.”
