That remains the responsibility of the investigative panel. Until then, nobody can say for certain what the offenses are,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Uwadiae, also refuted the allegations by PDP that the State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice and the chairman, Local Government Service Commission were suspended for alleged failure to deliver funds meant for the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to produce witnesses in court in the ongoing Governorship election petition tribunal sitting in Abuja.<\/p>\n<p>He stated that the allegation was purely imaginary, and that INEC operates on an annual fiscal budget, independent of any political party, including the ruling APC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe commission\u2019s decision not to call witnesses in court is standard legal practice, as documentary evidence typically speaks for itself under the legal principle of \u201cfacts speak for themselves.\u201d,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf INEC had called witnesses, it would have been assisting the petitioners in proving their case, which goes against legal principles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInstead, the commission has presented its documentary evidence, and the court will decide based on that,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>He, however, maintained that the burden of proof in election petitions lies with the petitioner, and not INEC.<\/p>\n<p>The APC publicity secretary, reaffirmed the party\u2019s commitment to good governance, transparency, and accountability under Governor Okpebholo.<\/p>\n<p>He urged PDP to refrain from spreading misinformation and to allow due process to take its course in both the suspensions and the election tribunal proceedings.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that Governor Okpebholo is on top of Edo State\u2019s affairs in ensuring that governance is conducted within the rule of law.<\/p>\n<p>Uwadiae said the administration remains focused on delivering a new lease of life to the people, adding that anyone who crosses the red line of accountability would face the appropriate consequences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
