A Coalition of Non-Governmental Organizations in Rivers state has challenged the Independent National Electoral Commission to publish the list of local government areas in Rivers state where election results have been collated and the ones left uncollated before the process was disrupted.
Convener of the group, Somina Wokoma warned the commission against turning the state in a theatre of war by refusing to abide by the provisions of the electoral act and doing the biddings of Governor Wike. The statement reads: “We closely monitored the March 9th governorship and Assembly elections and we are alarmed by the treachery exhibited by Effanga and his staff, especially the Admin Secretary who openly collaborated with Wike in trying to manipulate the governorship election in his favour failing which Effanga had the effrontery to wrongly advise INEC headquarters to suspend a smoothly running election.
“The suspension of the largely smooth running electoral process in the State is a flagrant violation of section 26 of the electoral Act. 2010 . INEC’s refusal to publish the names of the acclaimed collated seventeen LGA’s and the outstanding Six LGA’s is a clear act of deceit and treachery & confirmation of our long held suspicion that all is not well with the current Rivers INEC team .
“We have it on record the Governor Wike through the Rivers State REC Obong Effanga secretly changed the list of the Collation and Returning Officers who conducted the presidential election and replaced them with card-carrying members of the PDP who realising that the elections were not favouring their paymaster, triggered the illegal suspension order by INEC.
