Ekiti Poll: Oni’s Campaign Organisation Accuses INEC Of Delaying Release Of Results To Favour APC

The Segun Oni Campaign Organisation (SOCO) has accused the independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of deliberately delaying the upload of results of the Saturday, June 18 Ekiti State gubernatorial election on its server.

This was contained in a statement made available to newsmen by the Director of Media and Publicity of the campaign organisation, Mr Jackson Adebayo in Ado-Ekiti on Saturday

It was claimed that the delay was in order to perfect the falsified figures of results awarded to the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Mr Biodun Oyebamiji, as the winner.

According to him, INEC summary of local government results on Form EC8C and summary of Ekiti State election results on form EC8D are yet to be uploaded on the server, thereby making compilation of materials by the legal team and filing of petition by the Social Democratic Party (SDP) governorship candidate, Asiwaju Segun Oni to challenge the victory of the APC candidate, Mr Biodun Oyebamiji at the election petition tribunal pretty difficult.

The SOCO’s Spokesman, who said so far INEC has uploaded summary of units results on Form EC8A and Ward results on FORM EC8B, wondered why the INEC should be afraid to upload the results if not for the reasons of wanting to perfect the falsified figures it has used to rig for the APC perfectly before uploading the results to its server.
