The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, campaign organization in Abia state has accused the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance of celebrating the March 28 defeat of President Goodluck Jonathan by his All Progressives Congress (APC) counterpart, General Muhammadu Buhari.<\/p>\n
The party also accused Otti of resisting every effort made to revert to manual accreditation through the use of incident forms when card reader machines failed in most polling units across the 17 council areas of the state.<\/p>\n
In a statement signed by the Deputy Director Media and Publicity, Abia PDP Campaign Organization, Ebere Uzoukwa and made available to Pointblanknews.com, the party accused Otti of working for the APC while he claimed to be supporting Jonathan.<\/p>\n
“We have been alerted to the ongoing celebration by Dr. Alex Otti and his supporters in the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) Abia state since the announcement of the March 28 presidential election results by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) which returned Gen. Mohammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the winner.<\/p>\n
\u201cSuch celebration by Otti and his supporters who before the March 28 election had claimed to be working for the re-election of President Goodluck Jonathan explains their insistence on the use of card reader accreditation after the machines failed in many polling units.<\/p>\n
The statement added that all efforts made to revert to manual accreditation through the use of incident forms during the polls as directed by INEC was frustrated by Otti and his supporters, stressing that such sabotaged million of votes Jonathan would have garnered in the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis latest outing and show of shame by Otti and supporters has clearly given credence to earlier position that the ex-banker was truly working against President Jonathan while claiming support for him. Hence it is always difficult for a leopard to change its spot, the real Otti is now unmasked to Abia electorate and Nigerians.<\/p>\n
“Today, the same Otti has resorted to dance naked in the market by encouraging his supporters to celebrate President Jonathan’s loss after working against the use of incident forms to disfranchise enthusiastic voters and supporters of President Jonathan in Abia state.”<\/p>\n
