(Politics): PDP’s Agent Dino Melaye and Others stage walkout from National Collation Center

 

Dino Melaye and Emeka Ihedioha who are PDP party agents led some other party agents to stage a walkout from the National Collation Centre for the presidential election results at the International Conference Centre in Abuja on Monday, February 27, 2023. This was over their disagreement with INEC chairman, Yakubu Mahmood, with the process of result presentation.

Dino and the others had insisted that the results inputted on the Commission's Result Viewing Portal (iREV) from the different state Collation centers must be projected on a screen so they can compare it with the ones presented manually by state collation officers for the presidential election (SCOPs). They also insisted that the INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu must not accept the results of Ekiti state alleging that there were incidents of over-voting and electoral irregularities.

But the INEC chairman insisted that there was no over-voting in Ekiti and maintained that the results presented by the SCOPs stand.

In reaction, Melaye, Ihedioha and about 4 others stormed out of the national collation center.
