PDP, LP And Several Others Pull Out Of Presidential Collation, Accuse INEC Of Compromise



 The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has been accused of compromising the 2023 presidential election held on the 25th of February, 2023.

This is coming after some political parties challenged INEC for not uploading results from polling units across the country before the national collation started in Abuja.

The agent of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dino Melaye and former governor of Imo State, Emeka Ihedioha had challenged the electoral body to attend to their demand.

However, hours after resuming collation and listening to the opinions of party agents, INEC ignored their demands and continued with the collation.

The development saw agents of the PDP, Labour Party (LP) and several others pull out of the presidential collation.

The agents of the political parties threatened to act on their demands, following the decision of INEC to continue with collation.
