Member-Elect in the National Assembly for Imo State, Hon. Imo Ugochinyere has raised alarm over plots to alter the already concluded supplementary election results in Imo State by governor Hope Uzodimma.
Ugochinyere in a statement on Sunday said that Uzodimma and his cohorts plots to use the staff of Independent National Electoral Commission, (INEC) in Owerri, to force collation officers to return to the Local Government Areas of IDEATO SOUTH , ISU, AHIAZU and MBAITOLU IKEDURU where flawed supplementary elections held on Saturday, to resume collation and declaration of altered election results collated without BVAS Accreditation records.
Ugochinyere also in an emergency petition to INEC Chairman Prof Mahmoud Yakubu, warned that end to Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) is near if the results are announced with fake accreditation Figures by sending INEC collation staff back into the waiting hands of armed thugs currently at the Four LGA hqrs who are waiting for their arrival to force them to announce the result without Bvas accreditation.
According to him, “APC with verified BVAS accreditation backend records/results from the polling units have lost all the supplementary elections in Ideato South, Isu, Ahiazu, Mbaitolu to the opposition parties Accord, PDP and Labour yesterday after the evidence of BVAS accreditation showed that the total voters who turned out and was accredited by BVAS was not enough to top the leading margins of Vitalis Azodo of Accord Party in Ideato south, Modestus Osakwe of PDP in ISU, REX OKORO of PDP in AHIAZU ( if all the accreditation for all the polling units are reverified) and Uche OGBUAGU OF Labour Party in MBAITOLU IKEDURU
Giving a detailed explanation and attached evidence Ugochinyere said, “Exposed what INEC wants to do this morning to enable the All Progressive Congress, APC that have lost all the Imo supplementary elections to be declared winners with falsified results with votes above BVAS accreditation . Ikenga said He received the directive by the electoral body approved by FEDERAL COMMISSIONER KEN UKEAGU AND IMO REC PROF SYLVIA AGU that all collation officers (Who narrowly escaped being killed during Imo supplementary elections for refusing to upload fake results with fake accreditation figures) should all return to the supplementary election LGA headquarters of Ideato South, Isu, Ahiazu Mbaise and Mbaitolu/Ikeduru (which are currently under imo APC police and Army gangsters) to go collate AND declare results with fake BVAS accreditation which is a criminal offense.
“This is criminal and a violation of section 64 of electoral act. Let INEC first collate the result at their Imo State office where Prof Sylvia and Ken Ukeagu are monitoring the election by using BVAS accredited figures to verify all the results before sending out their own staff again to be attacked by these blood thirsty APC losers or give room for their Staff to be made to criminally declare fake results with fake accreditation figures outside what BVAS recorded.
“Imo people and Nigerians will not forgive INEC if the mandates imo people gave the real winners of imo supplementary elections are taken away by APC with plan to announce fake accreditation figures. I (Ugochinyere) have seen the BVAS figures and came to the undisputable calculation that Vitalis Azodo of Accord Party won Ideato South state assembly election, as BVAS accreditation total was not up to his leading margin, Modestus Osakwe of People’s Democratic Party, PDP won in Isu constituency, as the total BVAS accreditation couldn’t pass his leading margin, Rex Okoro of PDP won Ahaizu Mbaise state constituency election, as the 9 polling units is deemed cancelled as votes recorded are all above accreditation Figures and verification of earlier transmitted results will show numerous polling units with over voting against Bvas records , and Uche Ogbuagu of labour party won Mbaitolu Ikeduru election as his leading margin was maintained after BVAS accredited votes could not even near his already leading margin.
“INEC please declare the leading candidates winners and stop the plot to send back collation officers without adequate security to the LGA headquarters which is now under siege by armed militia supported by criminals in police and Army uniforms. With Imo supplementary elections, Nigerians are watching to see the usefulness or uselessness of the INEC BVAS technology and readiness of INEC to continue to exist as an institution that can be trusted. INEC CHAIR PROF YAKUBU MAHMOUD should reach out to the Imo Rec and federal commissioner who are all in Imo State to ensure the right thing is done this morning before shameless electoral thieves destroy Inec and our democracy. The time to act is now!”
