ABUJA FCT – Former Minister of Aviation, Osita Chidoka has reacted to the alleged entering of wrong figure into polling unit result sheet, saying it will be strange if the Collation Officer accepts this result and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) accepts it.
Chidoka who took to his verified X account to expose the names of two Agents who allegedly perpetrated this electoral fraud with the result sheets.
Agent Obozuwa Josephine accredited 213 voters out of 493 registered voters but recorded 406 votes in Osholo primary school in Weppa ward of Etsako East. If the Collation officer accepts this result and @inecnigeria accepts it, that will be strange.
At 406 voters of 493, registered is 82% voter turnout.
Similarly, Chidoka hinted that a Presiding Officer, Remiloluwa Itiolu Oluwajuwon recorded 250 accredited voters and wrote 263, 11, 97, and 1 for various parties totaling 372 but did not write the total.
He therefore urged INEC to advice all Collation Agents to check the BVAS before collating any result and comply with Section 51(2) of the Electoral Act 2022.
The former Minister warned that where the number of votes cast at an election in any polling unit exceeds the number of accredited voters on the voters’ register in that polling unit, the Presiding Officer shall cancel the result of the election in that polling unit.”
