Kenneth Okonkwo, a former Labour Party presidential campaign spokesperson, has claimed that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, wrote up and gave Peter Obi all of the results from the general elections in 2023.

Okonkwo lamented the fact that the electoral umpire had yet to publish the polling unit results to its websites as required by law, more than two years after the election.

He claims that in a state like Lagos State, where the LP candidate received over a million votes, INEC lowered his victory, while in Rivers, the results were changed and rewritten to favor the All Progressives Congress.

“There is no explanation to it till today. Recall that I said that they wrote the results. The result given to Obi was allocated to him, that’s written. Go to Rivers State,” he said on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.

In light of the Supreme Court’s decision, which declared Tinubu and the APC the winners of the presidential election, According to Okonkwo said, “No, the court is not telling you they wrote, or they did not write. The court is telling you, ‘you did not produce the evidence to show substantial evidence that they wrote’. Where will you bring the evidence?”

When asked why his party was unable to provide polling unit agents across the voting units nationally,
the former LP guy responded, “Yes, that is what it ought to be. And even the Electoral Act recognizes that all the parties will not have the resources to have the agents in all the polling units, and that’s why the law always uses the word ‘may’.

“Why do you need an agent if you are operating under INEC, an INEC that is not corrupt and that will not manipulate the result? INEC collected 400 billion naira to organize election in Nigeria.”
