Anambra Poll: Soludo Alleges Plot To Rig Election Results
Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has hinted at an alleged plan to rig the ongoing gubernatorial election in the state.
Soludo who is the candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), made the allegation while casting his vote on Saturday at Polling Unit 002, Umuezeadigo Street in Isuofia, Aguata LGA.
Although the APGA candidate did not mention the name of the party involved, the APGA candidate said the plotters plan to “swap election results”.
“The only thing we hear that is actually a concern, and we hope won’t happen, is that one party (he laughs) has written results to swap during the collation process.
“We hear they have even had meetings with INEC not to upload the results so that they can have the opportunity to manipulate the results.”
He, however, said he was confident in the electoral system to deliver a free and fair election process.
“But we have confidence that the system will sort it all out.
“Our people are vigilant, organised and united. We will follow the process from the polling unit to collation at the ward, and from the ward to local governments and to the state.
“Once the system works, we do not doubt that we are gonna win the 21 local governments”, he said.
