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 on 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.
Signed:
Olisa Metuh
National Publicity Secretary
