Adamawa Guber: PDP makes strong case on why Fintiri should be declared winner
aru Fintiri, as the governor-elect instead of terming the state governorship election inconclusive because the margin of lead was lower than the number of registered voters in places where voting was cancelled.
The PDP got 367,472 votes while the All Progressives Congress received 334,995 votes after results were collated, but INEC declared the election inconclusive on the argument that the margin of lead which was 32,467 votes, was lower than the number of registered voters, 40,948 in 44 polling units , where elections were cancelled.
The party demanded that INEC rescinds its decision and declare the PDP candidate, Hon Umaru Fintiri, as the winner; but added that if INEC insisted on a rerun, it should provide the number of PVCs collected in each of the 44 PUs and the number of people accredited in the units for the March 9 governorship election.
The party said it heard that Governor Mohammed Jibrilla Bindow was planning to ‘win the rerun at all costs,’ and warned that all attempts to rig the rerun would be resisted.
