Rivers State Governor has
accused the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC , Police and the
All Progressives Congress ( APC) of colluding to rig the forthcoming Rivers
rerun election.
The governor stated that in
collusion with INEC , the APC Official Printer , Atonyesia Peterside had
printed fake result sheets for seven local government areas in Rivers
South-East Senatorial District and Etche Local Government Area in Rivers East
Senatorial District .
Addressing a World Press
Conference at the Government House , Port Harcourt on Sunday ,
Governor Wike declared that INEC released all the official data of the specific
polling units where elections will hold to the APC Official Printer , Atonyesia
Peterside for the printing of fake result sheets, ballot papers and other
sensitive materials .
The governor told the press
conference attended by major Rivers State Stakeholders that despite
overwhelming evidence , the police have stated that they are under instructions
from Abuja not to prosecute the printer.
He added that the police
authorities have further stated that they will not arrest Mr Emmanuel Chinda,
Former Agriculture Commissioner and Rivers APC Chieftain, because the party
considers it an embarrassment to APC.
According to him, the
Police are already working round the clock to destroy the overall evidence of
the printing of fake election result sheets and other sensitive materials as
well as doctor the confessional statement of the prime suspect, Mr Atonyesia
Peterside, who is a cousin of the defeated APC Governorship candidate in Rivers
State.
"We made sure that the
overwhelming evidence were filmed before they were handed over to the police.
We know the system that the police will destroy the evidence. Police instead of
concluding the investigation and charge those responsible to court, the police
are telling us that are having pressure from above to release the culprits and
not to charge them to court
"PDP will resist any
attempt by INEC to rig the rerun elections in Rivers State. You go and print
fake result sheets and you expect us not to resist it? Let me see the INEC
official who will introduce the fake result sheets during the rerun elections.
If you rig this election, you rig your life. If you like bring American
marines, we will resist them.
Rivers State is not Edo and
it is not Ondo. Nobody will impose any representative on us. INEC cannot take
us for a ride. We will not allow it . INEC must stop its collusion with APC .
Yes, INEC was appointed by the APC , but they were not appointed to rig
elections."
Governor Wike stated that
he believes that President Buhari will not support the electoral fraud being
perpetrated by the APC, INEC and police as it is unlimited corruption.
It will be recalled that a
plot by the agents of the Rivers APC to rig the forthcoming Rivers South-East
Senatorial District was uncovered as the Police on Saturday bursted a
fake result sheets printing syndicate in Port Harcourt.
The Printing Press, Help-Mate
Consult located at 12 Isiokpo Street D-Line Port Harcourt was printing fake
result sheets for seven local government areas of the Rivers South-East when
the police stormed the facility upon a tip off by a concerned Nigerian.
Earlier, the graphic designer
of the APC Official Printer , Mr Godday Nanee told journalists that Emmanuel
Chinda , Former Agriculture Commissioner and Rivers APC Chieftain brought the
sample Result sheets which he designed.
He said he was in the
process of additional designing additional sensitive materials when the police
stormed the facility.
