A non-profit organization with a United Nations consultative status, the National Rebirth Group (NRG), has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of acting a premeditated script prepared by the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), aimed at stopping Kogi Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello from seeking reelection in 2020.
Bekee Igwe has had something to say about INEC.
“Why did INEC not react immediately the so called double registration took place? At whose instance did the indicted INEC officials carry out their nefarious act?
“Since INEC was aware that Governor Bello was registered to vote, why would he seek a second registration? Why would the electoral body wait for more than seven months before disciplining its staff or make the findings public?”
“The only possible conclusion to be drawn from this bizarre drama is a possible collusion and outright conspiracy, between INEC and the opposition in Kogi State which stands to benefit from the consequences arising therefrom”, the statement read in parts.
“INEC wants Nigerians to believe it is decisive by sacking its staff. But, it is obvious they are fall guys sacrificed to achieve an evil aim. Ultimately, the aim is to rope in the Governor and hand the state to the opposition. Otherwise, why would INEC be threatening Yahaya Bello who was not even in the country when the purported double registration took place? Clearly, the entire process is a sham”, the statement added.
