The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has charged Nigerians to totally
disregard misleading figures being circulated by the APC in the social
media as results of the Presidential and National Assembly elections in
some polling booths.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh in a statement, Sunday, said
the figures were “fake and do not represented the true results which are
currently being collated by INEC, the only body authorized to release and
announce results”.
“The APC in its desperation for power has resorted to posting fake results
in the social media in a bid to ambush the electoral commission, mislead
the unsuspecting public to believe it is winning, all in furtherance of
its grand plot to cause confusion and set the stage for violence when the
authentic results are finally released.
“We therefore alert Nigerians to be on their guard and close ranks in
resisting the APC’s plot to plunge the nation into chaos and anarchy. Our
democracy has come to stay and the will of the people must prevail over
and above the parochial ambition of a selfish few.
“Finally, we strongly caution the APC against its acts of desperation and
use of dishonest methods including physical attacks against our members
and supporters as these pose great threat to our democracy, the unity and
stability of our dear nation.
