ENUGU, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- The agents of the Labour Party and Peoples Democratic Party have walked out of the Collation Centre in Abuja over a disagreement with the INEC Chairman.
The electoral body, headed by Professor Yakubu Mahmood, had been asked to ensure that every result be posted on the election result portal but this was met with a stiff opposition.
Following this, the two major political parties staged a walkout from the national collation facility in Abuja.
They abandoned the International Conference Centre venue of the collation after trying unsuccessfully to convince Yakubu to announce results previously uploaded to the server of the electoral body INEC.
The parties said they believed the results being announced did not reflect what transpired at polling centres across the country.
Some of the party agents also mentioned how some results were specifically different from what had been announced at unit, ward and local government area levels.
