Taraba APC Gov Candidate Rejects Results, heads to tribunal by silverprince413(m): 4:31pm On Apr 26, 2015 |
The All Progressives Congress candidate in the just- concluded governorship election in Taraba State, Sen. Aisha Alhassan, has rejected the results of the poll as announced by INEC on Sunday. Addressing a press conference in Jalingo, shortly after the announcement of the results, Alhassan described the entire elections process as a “daylight robbery” and said the party would challenge the results in the elections petitions tribunal. “The combined governorship elections in Taraba were characterised by violence, massive rigging, ballot snatching and abuse of the card readers in substantial parts of the state by the PDP and their allies,” she said. She contended that results ascribed to Wukari, Donga, Takum, Sardauna, Zing, Yorro, Kurmi and some parts of Ussa, Karim-Lamido, Bali, Ardo-Kola and Lau local government areas were not acceptable as they did not reflect the true results of the election in Taraba. Alhassan said all the complaints on the irregularities and abuse of the election guidelines were promptly reported to INEC, but that no action was taken. NAN reports that the INEC Returning Officer for Taraba Prof. Kyari Mohammed, who declared the results on Sunday in Jalingo, said Ishaku scored 369,318 votes to emerge victorious. He said Sen. Aisha Alhassan came second with 275,984 votes, while Chief David Kente of the Social Democratic Party, polled 29, 966 votes. www.punchng.com/news/taraba-apc-gov-candidate-rejects-results-heads-for-tribunal/ |

Why is it that APC candidates when the failed find it difficult to congratulate the winner? I heard one of them a House of Assembly man who failed in Rivers state crying thesame way in a radio programme Rythm FM political reports in Port Harcourt saying 'APC is not in compulsion to give congratulatory messages ' You see, the truth is that it is painful to give a message of good will to a winner in a contest. It is a high symbol of strenght and maturity!!! Sorry APC lacks it!!! |
