• Politicians risking lives of INEC staff by stealing result sheets, Amaechi warns
Chuks Okocha in Abuja
Presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Atiku Abubakar, has alleged there’s a fresh and coordinated attempt by desperate elements within the ruling establishment to manipulate the democratic process and deny Nigerians the right to freely choose their next president.
This was as his running mate, Rotimi Amaechi, has accused politicians of stealing result sheets at unit level during polls, inadvertently putting the lives of INEC staff at risk.
In a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu, Atiku disclosed that he had received credible information indicating that renewed efforts might be underway to use political and legal machinations to keep the ADC off the ballot ahead of the 2027 general election.
