Kogi West: INEC Under Pressure to Alter Election Results

There are speculations that in the just-concluded Presidential and National Assembly election in Kogi West, officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, are under intense pressure by APC Yahaya Bello led State Government to doctor results of the election held yesterday Saturday in favour of Senator Dino Melaye and other Candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

Sources say the plan was to delay the collation exercise till late into the night so that people who were already jubilating would have slept by the time the results are announced.

It is however uncertain that the people will sleep. This is because as at the moment collation of results at the Senatorial headquarter in Kabba has been stopped and security agencies flooded the town.

A change in the authentic results as earlier collated, recorded and announced at all the polling units across the state may spark widespread protests.
