Abia north: INEC under fire over Orji Kalu’s emergence as Senator-elect

the Independent National Election Commission , over its alleged partisanship and misconduct during the just-concluded 2019 general elections.

The PDP chieftain, who spoke in an telephone interview with DAILY POST, Sunday, faulted the INEC declaration of Orji Uzor Kalu, the Senatorial candidate of All Progressives Congress, as winner of the February 23 senatorial poll conducted in Abia north zone, expressing optimisms that the tribunal will do the needful in ensuring justice prevail.

His words, “INEC did not only violate the law, but, they also worked against their own guidelines on that election. One, INEC in their own result sheets, declared the candidate of the APC, Chief Orji Uzor Kalu, winner with ten thousand votes. INEC in the same result sheets, also indicated that a total number of 60 votes was cancelled. By implication, the electoral umpire was not suppose to declare APC candidate winner of that election.
