Elder Godswill Orubebe is currently staging a protest at the INEC result collation center alleging that Prof Jega has been compromised. According to him, Professor Jega has been selective, partial and is tribalistic.
He said APC had written a letter to INEC concerning an alleged rigging in Rivers state which he immediately sent a committee to investigate the issue but that when PDP wrote protest letters on the elections in Katsina, Kaduna and Jigawa, Jega did not send anyone to attend to their protest.
Jega was forced to respond to the allegations.. Read his reply below
You said you submitted a petition I refused to accept..You claimed a result released by the APC was allegedly given to them by me..
Yesterday,after we took the fist batch of results and a recess was declared..as I walked back to the office, my PA said to me, here are some papers a rep of PDP sent .Bello Fadili gave some documents to my PA on the stand,while results were being collated ,on live TV..I told him(my PA) to return the documents..This is because I don't receive petitions on the stand.Subsequently, he sent a text message..I said we don't collect peitions on the platform,when collecting results..He said I should have left my office open..I told him the Secretary of the commission is in the office..(continue)
I can't receive petitions in this hall, on this platform..
He replied, he will see what he can do.As I speak, I have not received anything ..Jega responded to allegations he gave APC results before hand,which they published on his website
I do not give results to anybody..The results were formally declared her..
so as far as I am concerned,I have not given anybody results..It's unfair to speak about something I have not seen.Jega ended on a stern note.
Mr.Orubebe you are a former minister of the Federal republic of Nigeria,so you should be careful about the things you say and your public conduct ..let us not disrupt this process of an election that has ended peacefully After Jega asked that the collation should continue, Mr Dickson, did not relent,insisting the collation won't continue.. and it is unknown if he was whisked away by the security..But it appears he was led away peacefully..
