By our reporter/ Senator Andy Uba, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the November 6 governorship election on Thursday rejected the results of the election announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
INEC on Wednesday declared candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Prof. Charles Soludo winner of the election.
Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Valentine Ozigbo, came second while Uba finished third.
But in a statement on Thursday in Abuja, the Spokesman for the Uba Campaign Organisation, Ambassador Jerry Ugokwe, said the election was a charade, adding that Uba would use legal means to “reclaim” his mandate.
“The outcome of the election was a charade and did not reflect the wishes of the people of Anambra State.”
“Our popular candidate, Senator Andy Uba is a victim of widespread electoral fraud and manipulation by INEC in cohorts with the Willie Obiano Regime and the security forces deployed to oversee the Anambra State Governorship Election.
“The elections were characterised by widespread irregularities, intimidation and voter suppression in order to clear the path for the inglorious ‘victory’ of APGA in the polls.
