He assured of the party\u2019s determination to take action in saving Nigeria and protecting the sanctity of votes cast in last Saturday\u2019s election.<\/p>\n

He reiterated that the electoral commission is violating the law, stressing that it violated the Electoral Act 64 sub-section 4 and section 65 of the Electoral Act 2022 as amended.<\/p>\n

According to him, \u201cThe Act has stipulated that it was mandatory that at the completion of an election, the result must be transmitted to what was called IREV.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that an electoral officer must not document the election result without ensuring that the result has been transmitted to the IREV.<\/p>\n
