Former Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has raised alarm over alleged attempts to manipulate the outcome of the All Progressives Congress, APC, governorship primary election in Nasarawa State.
The Director-General of the Mohammed Adamu governorship campaign organisation, Musa Hussaini, made the allegation while addressing journalists on Friday in Lafia.
Hussaini said results obtained from wards and local government areas where voting took place reflected the will of party members and demonstrated widespread support for the aspirant.
He alleged interference with the election result sheets by some officials of the Nasarawa State Government in certain local government areas.
According to him, the alleged actions were undemocratic and capable of undermining the credibility of the primary election.
He called on the APC Electoral Committee to remain impartial and uphold what he described as the genuine results from ward polling and collation centres.
“We, therefore, call on the APC Electoral Committee to remain firm, impartial and committed to justice by upholding the genuine results as obtained at the wards and local government collation centres.
The committee must resist every form of pressure, intimidation or attempt to manipulate the democratic process,” he said.
#Muktv reports that collation of results from the governorship primary was ongoing at the state collation centre in Lafia, at the time of filing the report.
