The Imo governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Hope Uzodinma, has rejected the election results released by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in the state.
Uzodinma alleged that there was some form of injustice done in the results that produced the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Emeka Ihedioha, as the winner of the governorship election.
He accused INEC in the state of compromising in the execution of their duty. Alleging that the electoral umpire conspired with the PDP candidate to ‘rig’ the election.
Uzodinma urged his supporters to remain calm and remain hopeful.
“Those who were manipulating argued that it will be suspicious if the APC candidate that they knew clearly will win this election is not even second position.
“We are going to challenge the result. We will be very resilient. We will address it and God willing, justice will be done,” he said.
The senator also dismissed rumours that he has congratulated Ihedioha on his emergence as the governor-elect of the state.
