Friday, May 29, 2026 -Mr Paul Ibe, media aide to the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has said the All-Progressives Congress, APC, presidential primary election manufactured figures as dress rehearsal for rigging the 2027 election.
Ibe said the ADC is not like the All-Progressives Congress,
APC, that manufactures figures during its presidential primary election.
During the APC presidential primary election, Tinubu emerged
as the party’s candidate with over 10 million votes, while Atiku had 1,855,787
votes to become ADC’s flag bearer.
Ibe while speaking on Arise Television’s Prime Time said:
“We are not doing that in the ADC that are manufacturing figures as a dress
rehearsal for possible rigging in 2027, that’s why they are talking about 11
million votes; how? Those are manufactured figures but we are not doing that in
the ADC.
“Look at our process, NEC monitored the primaries and they
were present throughout. We are trying to ensure that if we are going to
deliver on our promises and be taken seriously by Nigerians, then our process
must be free, fair, and credible.
“That is exactly what has happened. The process has been
open and transparent, and it is still ongoing. Allegations have been made, but
until those allegations are substantiated with evidence, they remain mere
allegations.”
