Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, a well-known Nigerian socio-political activist, has chastised the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for refusing to tender evidence of the 2023 election results.
WITHIN NIGERIA recalls that during an interview in court, LP Lead Counsel, Livy Uzoukwu, lamented how INEC has refused and neglected to provide the party with all of the evidence required to prosecute their court petition, despite the court order.
Uzoukwu stated that INEC officials in Sokoto State demanded a N1.5 million fee to process the documents.
He said;
A typical example is that of Rivers State, where the (INEC) Resident Electoral Commissioner boldly told us they do not have any form EC8 to give us.
Charly Boy stated on Instagram that Nigerian youths have matured beyond the games the electoral body is playing.
He claims that if INEC conducted a free and fair election, why would it be difficult to show the court the results and other evidence that President Bola Tinubu won the election?
Charly Boy went on to call INEC chairman Mahmood Yakubu and his cohorts “criminals without shame.”
He said;
INEC make una dey der dey play. Nigerian Youths don pass the Mumu stage una dey think.
So if you conducted what you claimed to be a free and fair Presidential election, why is it difficult to show the world especially the court the results of the so-called election and other electoral materials to be tender as evidence?
Mr. Yakubu and co, you all are criminals, wey no get shame. Anyways, there can’t be any honour amongst thieves. Ur Fathers.
