Agents of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have walked out of the collation center in Abuja ahead of the announcement of the winner of the presidential election.
Senator Dino Melaye was said to have mobilised party agents to stage a walkout of the collation if the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) fails to abide by their bidding.
On reason for walking out of the venue, Melaye said; “Having observed that the Chairman of INEC is determined to rig the elections by making sure that results are not uploaded, by vehemently making a presentation that makes it look as if we are all here to rubber- stamp the fraud cooked between INEC and the APC, we are saying we are not here to rubberstamp the electoral fraud that have been prepared by INEC and the APC.
“We are Nigerians. There is nowhere on the server that results have been uploaded.
“The political parties here staged a walkout to express the unfortunate politicisation and commercialisation of our electoral process.”
European Union observers have also said the polls fell short of international standard that Nigeria set for itself and called for the prosecution of irregularities in the process.
