Rerun: Wike Insists INEC Gave Amaechi Results Sheets
The Rivers State Governor, Chief Nyesom Wike has reiterated that the Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi was in receipt of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) original result sheets given to him by INEC.
The governor said that the feeble denial of Amaechi that he was not in receipt of result sheets from INEC proves that the evil plot was still on.
Speaking while flagging-off the reconstruction of the General Hospital, Nchia in Eleme Local Government Area, Wike noted that in the denial of the embattled minister, he did not dispute the fact that the All Progressives Congress (APC) leaders met with him in Abuja last Tuesday.
He urged all the people of the state to remain vigilant all through the electoral process, in order to stop the introduction of criminally-acquired results by the minister and his cohorts.
He said: “Follow your results from the polling units to the ward collation centre down to the local government collation centre.
“We have information that they plan to use policemen and other security agents to beat people up, drive them from the collation centres, and thereafter, allow APC to smuggle in the result sheets handed over to Amaechi”.
He called on the Eleme people to work for their freedom and liberty, despite the attempts to enthrone electoral fraud.
The governor said: “Their only game plan is to use security agents as a tool of intimidation. With free and fair elections, APC has no hope in Rivers State”.
While also flagging-off the construction of internal roads in Okrika and the reconstruction of Okrika General Hospital, Wike urged the people of the area to vote massively for the PDP, as the party was their only hope to reap the dividends of democracy.
He reminded the people of the area that the same APC leaders had neglected the area for eight years due to political vendetta.
