At the Presidential Election Petition Court today, counsels to Peter Obi and Labour Party told the court they were going to present the INEC certified Forms EC8A for 18 States as evidence before the court.

However, due to time constraint, Labour Party and Obi counsels were able to present the forms EC8A from 6 States of Rivers, Benue, Niger, Cross River, Osun and Ekiti.

What caught people’s attention, however, was that INEC was objecting to the presentation of these documents that are their own original documents. Some people wondered if they were surprised that LP could come up with such magnitude of evidence in court.

But a Twitter user Mikael C Bernard, set out to tell those surprised at INEC action, not to be surprised as INEC denied the election it conducted by itself in Anambra in 2003.

To support this claim, he posted some portion of a classified information provided to the US Government by the then US Consul General in Nigeria, Brian Browne.

In the document, Brian Browne expressed surprised that the electoral body who had pleaded before the Election Petition Tribunal in Anambra that they had conducted a free, fair and valid election in the 2003 governorship election in Anambra, went to the Appeal Court in Anambra, after they had lost at the Tribunal, and stated before the Appeal Court that they did not hold election in 90 precincts of 213 precincts of the state.

Of course, the Appeal Court disagreed with their inconsistent responses and went ahead to agree with the Tribunal and declared Obi the validly elected governor from that election but it exposed the extent to which an agency who supposed to be a neutral and unbiased umpire can go to do the hatchet job of those in power.

It was alleged then that Chris Uba, who was close to the then president Olusegun Obasanjo was the strongman behind Ngige and who was getting INEC to deny their own election; election they had declared free, fair and valid.

20 years later, and same agency and same man have found themselves in similar situation and in similar terrain. Will Obi be twice lucky? We will wait and see.

If Labour Party like, let them Present Documents from 1963, na them know..........All i know is that May we never Labour in Vain like the Manhood Seekers........ Shioor

INEC is an electoral arm of the APC

The document i saw this morning shock me

Obi is actually closer to the villa than expected

That sham of election should not only be annulled, Tinubu and Mahmoud Yakubu should be jailed for life

Election robbers

Things must surely fall apart

INEC of 2000-2007 were the worst thing to befall this nation.

There is even one election that INEC failed to provide official results and there are some instances where we would have seen the result of the whole election in a particular constituency even before voting ends.

Obasanjo supervised the most corrupt INEC.

All these Media propaganda would not help anything..

Tell your Pangolo lawyers to eat well then organize themselves..

Inec don dey deny their results

Una go soon start to curse judiciary

Na just time

The op cannot even spot the difference.90 out of 213 is substantial to change the outcome.can obi prove irregularities in at least 9 states,massive irregularities? Secondly,inec rejecting any document is normal that's if you are conversant with court cases.obidients are legally unintelligent hence these

Mahmood Yakubu is a fraudster

Peter Obi is presenting the Certified true copies of the results in each local government, copies certified by same inec o

But you are asking for polling unit result😀

It shows that you are not even aware of anything that happened in that election

Results in the LGA were just declared like the way the Adamawa REC declared Aisha without any document

But the actual figure in the CTC says something different

This shows that u are unfortunately sick in the head.

Whenever u are following people, use ur brain so that u don't fall into ditch or trough.

Your fanatism will not take u far because u refused to develop yourself and see life beyond ur circle.

Mandate abi na manhood or Mahmoud thieves how far? Hope una don hang Jagaban picture for una Offices and states captured within the dot.

What is the difference between those elections and the one INEC organized this year?

I know you guys said IREV is useless, but how can INEC explain the discrepancies between what they announced in Rivers and what is on the IREV for Rivers?

Well, the good news is that Obi is not in court to joke. Today, his lawyers presented evidence from 6 states and I’m sure they are presenting more tomorrow.

There’s even more…

LP deceived INEC and you guys by giving you the impression that they do not have agents in some places which made INEC think they can do rubbish and get away with it.

Or INEC thought Labour Party was going to depend on them to get the documents they would use to prosecute their case.

I’m sure they did not prepare for this ambush.

By the time Obi is done in court, the judges will have no choice than to tell Tinubu that their hands are tied.

Just for clarity, LP presented Form EC8A for the Local Governments you are seeing mentioned here.

You still miss the point.presenting ctc of results is different from establishing irregularities.in proving election rigging,you don't do it state by state or lga.you must do it at each polling unit.obi has presented documents,he must now prove irregularities in each unit result one by one

Make una dey play.

Lol!

Calm down! Don’t be in a haste. I’m sure you never knew Obi had the certified true copies of Form EC8A for all the Local Governments in a State like Niger for instance. Now he has presented it in court.

Is form EC8A for recording LG results or polling unit results?

You see why I said you should relax?

INEC would have to explain to the court why Obi scored 200 votes in one polling unit in Suleja but by the time the entire local government was computed, Obi’s votes reduced to 140 for the entire LGA.

When Obi said, “we won the election and we will prove it”, he wasn’t bluffing. He meant every word therein.

INEC has never been independent. They should remove the I in their name and go back to their former name

Why all this nonsense still happens in this country is that Nigeria is a country where a lot of things happen without consequences.

Between now and 2027, Nigeria needs to amend her electoral laws to hand down up to 5 years imprisonment to people (including corps members) who change election results.
You cannot thwart people's destinies and go scot-free.

By the way, most of the crimes people accuse the INEC chairman of committing have nothing to do with him. We have a lot of biased INEC officials and they give fake results to their head office.

Lastly, I want to see true Akwa Ibom State results because there's no way APC can win Akwa Ibom State. Impossible!
