Barely one week to the Imo State supplementary election which is to be held on the 25th of April, 2015, the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission has hit the Imo State Residential Electoral Commissioner Dr Gabriel Adah with his sledge hammer over the weekend.
\nDr Gabriel Adah was relieved of his duties of conducting the re-scheduled supplementary election slated for Saturday this week over alleged compromise given the huge electoral malpractices that bedeviled the House of Assembly\/Governorship election in the State on the 11th of April.
\nPrior to his being relieved of his duties by the INEC boss Prof Jega.., Dr Adah was accused of having messed up the April 11th polls in the State which made many Imolites live under apprehension.
\nAt the interim, the APC led government in the State has made statements, discrediting the Imo REC Dr Adah, calling him a PDP card carrying member, who has no moral standing let alone conduct the election in the state\u2026 the State come 25th April 2015.
\nIn a press statement made by the Senior Special Assistant on Media to the State governor at the weekend, Sam Onwuemeodo accused the Imo REC, Dr Adah of being in stalled to deliver PDP and her guber candidate in the State Hon Emeka Ihedioha.
\nThe leadership of APC in the State has it that Imo REC, Dr Adah was an ex-speaker of the Cross River State Housing of Assembly and as such is bound by sentiments to delivering his party.
\nThe statement further wonder why Hon Emeka Ihedioha was able to ganner a huge amount of over three hundred thousand votes in only seven Local Government Area of the State where he won, while the state governor, Rochas Okorocha got over three hundred and seventy thousand votes in twenty Local Government Areas of the State where the state governor also won, despite this, the Imo REC was not guided by wisdom.
\nIt urged the INEC boss, Prof Jega to investigate Dr Adah’s activities and ensure that the right thing is done. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
