Cancel Anambra gov election now – APC

The All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party have expressed different opinion in the Anambra governorship election, which was held on Saturday.

While the APC demanded a total cancellation of the entire election based on alleged massive disenfranchisement of people across the state, which it said was caused by the blatant incompetent and/or deliberate sabotage by the electoral commission itself, the PDP said the APC wanted to rig the election with thugs.

The ruling party therefore commended the people of the state for what it described as the peaceful and orderly conduct of the election.

However, in a statement issued in Lagos on Sunday by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed,the APC said the call for total cancellation supersedes its early call for a rerun in four local government areas,and is based on the report it received from its agents as well as from local and foreign observers during the poll.
