The Inter-Party Advisory Committee, IPAC, in Ogun State has berated the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, over rejection of the last Saturday’s Presidential election result.
IPAC expressed displeasure over the rejection of the election result, saying since the result was yet to be announced officially, the party should have been patient enough.
IPAC Chairman, Abayomi Arabambi refuted the claim by the PDP that the All Progressive Congress (APC) colluded with the state Commissioner of Police, CP Ahmed Illiyasu and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to rig the election.
Arabambi said, “We saw in the news that the National Chairman was accusing INEC and the security agencies of colluding to rig election in favour of the APC candidate but they have not been able to substantiate their position.
“I don’t understand this noise by PDP that APC colluded with INEC to rig the election; claiming they have certain results with them.”
Arabambi praised the Commissioner of Police and the Resident Electoral Commissioner Prof Abdulgany Raji for the peaceful conduct of the election.
“In Ogun state, we in IPAC, we give kudos to the Commissioner of Police and the resident electoral commissioner . There is no collusion as far as we are concerned here. Ahmed Illiyasu and Prof Abdulgany Raji are doing wonderful job here in Ogun state,” he said.
