Protesters yesterday stormed the National Collation Centre (NCC) for the 2023 general elections at International Conference Centre (ICC), calling for suspension of the ongoing presidential election results announced by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), amid the tension in the country.

They also called for the resignation of the Chairman of the Independent Electoral Commission , Mahmood Yakubu, over his failure to upload election results on INEC Result Viewing Portal .

The group leader, Obu Elekwa, lamented over the failure of INEC to upload the election result electronically, urging Yakubu to fulfill his pledge of a free, transparent election. “And we’re going to be doing it on the land of Nigeria. We won’t watch them cause another war. We won’t give them the opportunity to slap our children again.”

Abari made the appeal in a special statement, urging Nigerians to conduct themselves with decorum especially regarding the on-going collation of results. He called on Nigerians to be patient and allow for the completion of the result collation process, bearing in mind that there are available legal means for redress of electoral grievances.
