Abuja, Nigeria: PDP official, Elder Godswill Orubebe  disrupted the announcement of INEC results in the collation centre in Abuja. The former minster of Niger delta alleges that the INEC Chairman, Professor Attahiru Jega has been compromised. Orubebe said that the INEC Chairman is selective, partial and is tribalistic.

                    

He said that the APC political party had written a letter about the Rivers state results cancellation, and he [ Jega] sent a committee to investigate the issue, but when the opposition party, PDP sent him a letter about Kaduna, Jigawa and Katsina, he did not honour their letter or sent anyone to investigate.

Orubebe sat on the stage and won't allow result announcement to continue until security agencies whisked him away.

The observer at the Nigeria election from the UK and US had released a joint statement. The Foreign Secretary and US Secretary of State in their joint report said that there was no systemic manipulation in the process of election, but the collation processes might have been subject to deliberate political interference.

                       Observers

Read the full reports here : 

Our governments welcome the largely peaceful vote on 28 March. The Nigerian people have shown a commendable determination to register their vote and choose their leaders.

So far, we have seen no evidence of systemic manipulation of the process. But there are disturbing indications that the collation process - where the votes are finally counted - may be subject to deliberate political interference. This would contravene the letter and spirit of the Abuja Accord, to which both major parties committed themselves.

The Governments of the United States and the United Kingdom would be very concerned by any attempts to undermine the independence of the Electoral Commission (INEC), or its Chairman, Prof Jega; or in any way distort the expressed will of the Nigerian people.
