Anambra poll: Jega’s apology, admission of incompetence






The public apology tendered by the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof Attaihiru Jega over the conduct of the governorship election in Anambra State is an admission of failure.





The governorship candidate of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) in Ondo State, Prince Soji Ehinlanwo, said this in an interview with The Nation.



Ehilanwo said he supported the position of the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Chris Ngige and other opposition parties calling for the cancellation of the election.



He urged all stakeholders to remain resolute in their struggle to fight the travesty.



Ehinlanwo hailed the leadership of the APC for its unwavering support for Ngige.



The APC chieftain recalled that all the issues complained about over last year’s election in Ondo State were present in the Anambra election such as manipulation of voter register, late arrival of election materials in areas considered to be strongholds of APC and falsification of election results among others.



He urged all genuine patriots across the country to consider the implications of this development for the 2015 elections and the country’s democracy.
