All Progressives Congress (APC) has alleged that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, hacked into the server of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Deputy national publicity secretary of the APC, Yekini Nabena, made this claim on Wednesday in response to claims by the PDP and Atiku that information on INEC sever showed that the opposition party and its candidate won the 2019 election.
PDP had in a petition to the election tribunal through its national legal adviser, Emmanuel Enoidem, asked that Atiku be declared the winner of last month’s presidential poll.
In its 139-page petition PDP had said, “From the data in the 1st respondent’s (INEC’s) server the true, actual and correct results from state to state computation, showed that Atiku polled a total of 18,356,732 votes to defeat Buhari whom they said scored 16,741,430 votes.”
But Nabena argued that PDP would not have got the figure it claimed to have won the February 23 presidential election if It did not hack into INEC server.
