Information available to this medium indicates that the Plateau  State  Independent  Electoral commission PLASIEC, has allegedly summoned all the  Presiding officers, Agents and Returning  Officers  that participated in last  Local Government Council  election to accomplish  the task of thumb printing  and signing  of all the  forms abandoned  across  the 17 local government  councils  in order to perfect the allegedly rigged LGAs polls, so as to use all those that signed as witness at the election Tribunal.

 

Information available revealed Chairmen invited them to PLASIEC headquarters and allegedly paid them a huge amount of money to help sign all documents where most of them were sighted jumping in and out of the  PLASIEC headquarters.

 

According to a source, the aggrieved  People  Democratic Party, PDP, agents who were not paid after the council polls were the first group to arrive the PLASIEC  office and were seen smiling out of the office to enter inside their vehicles  which were parked in front of PLASIEC office.

 

Meanwhile speaking, Plateau PDP Chairman, Damishi Sango said; “I have warned people  to be aware of this charade called Local Government  Election where they abandoned voting  materials  in the  councils and PLASIEC Boss Hon Ntung Ari gave an invitation  to returning officers, presiding  officers, and agents of the political  parties  to perfect  the process  of the alleged rigging.

 

“They announced the results, which are fake; the APC in Plateau and Lalong should know that they are in darkness because we are calling on APC to know that all the results that they are trying to change we are all aware.

 

Sango said; “when I see Governor Lalong canvassing for his reelection bid, I pity him, oh Lalong, Oh Lalong you don’t deserve a second term in office.”

 

Speaking he said PLASIEC has no master plan to rig the election meaning they were forced by some persons to do, as he said if they do, some people that resigned, a board member and a commissioner that resigned, wouldn’t have resigned from the work, where hey stated that they can’t be part of this mess where the APC is destroying this nascent democracy.

 

“We are prepared to claim  our victory  at the  election  tribunal  because  of the  facts  we have before  us is enough  to nail  them,  that  is why they are using  paying these agents to come and thumbprint  for them, but they have forgotten that the Police  have all the  results.”

 

Hon Sango condemned in its totality how the PLASIEC chairman is plotting to perfect presidential election, they both got this idea from the above to use Plateau State as a test and experiment, and if it works they are going to make use of it.

 

“It would be recalled that PLASIEC conducted elections in 13 local governments where 4LGAs are still waiting to be conducted.”

 

Meanwhile, the chairman of Plateau PDP,  Hon Damishi Sango has advised that Nigerians should be careful with the new tactics of APC’s plan is to use Plateau State as a testing ground ahead of 2019 general polls.
