PDP rejects Exparte Order stopping final collation of Bauchi gov election results - The Nation Nigeria

The Peoples Democratic Party has rejected what it described as the “arm-twisting” of the judiciary and the court by the All Progressives Congress to unconstitutionally halt the conclusion of collation of already declared results in the Bauchi State governorship election, which it claimed to have won.

The party further alleged a plot by the APC and certain compromised elements in the Independent National Electoral Commission to escalate crisis and derail the electoral process. “Until collation is completed and results declared, no one can question the constitutional powers of the electoral body: INEC, in that regard.”

“It is clear that collation of result is part of the electoral process and that INEC cannot act on a purported exparte order to jettison its independence and halt the collation of results, which is a key component of its statutory electoral duty.

Buhari has destroyed electoral process in Nigeria.
