Tinubu
The national leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has raised the alarm over what he called Federal Government’s plan to discredit the process of card reader machine.
Tinubu, who spoke after voting at his Sunday Adigun, Alausa polling unit, appealed to the people of the state not to resort to violence as a result of what he ascribed to the frustration of the voters and the sufferings of the people during the process of accreditation.
According to the former Lagos State governor, the flaw of the card readers “is a collusion between the institution and the government in power.”
He also disagreed with the decision of INEC to extend voting to Sunday, vowing to challenge it.
“I will challenge it. I will challenge it as a voter in Lagos.
“We will do an assessment of the entire process to determine if we will challenge the anomalies in the court of competent jurisdiction”, he vowed.
Tinubu said he was disappointed at the news that the INEC website and database had been hacked into, he noted that it “is still disappointing. You see American, Germans and Europeans are the experts. They protect their websites effectively.
“Why all dubious things in Nigeria? Why all this information? Are you proud of these flaws? We have seen text messages indicating delay in the operation, lack of effectiveness. The attempt is to discredit the process of card readers and suppress the votes of Lagos State. It is not going to work”.
He, however, said that his party could not yet throw out the “baby with the bath water. We will look at the situation when we end this exercise. I am still confident up till this moment. It depends on materiality.
“How those problems are affecting the people can only be determined later. The problem is more in Lagos than other states,” he said. .
