Oseloka H. Obaze, Campaign Manager of the Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign in the February 25, 2023 election, has warned the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) against tampering with IRev as it relates to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
According to news sources, this was revealed in a press statement issued on Saturday by campaign spokesperson Diran Onifade.
According to Obaze, intelligence received by the Campaign office indicates that INEC is purportedly under pressure to tamper with the results of various states, including the FCT, in order to keep the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in good standing.

He stated that their source revealed that “INEC is tempering with the machines used in the election to adjust FCT results to give the APC candidate, the much-needed 25%, which he did not get as per the initial INEC declaration and for which he is being challenged at the Presidential election tribunal.
“It’s not clear how the Electoral Commission can brazenly carry out such bizarre action but given the abracadabra they did to announce the APC Candidate winner by 4 a.m., there is nothing to be taken for granted.”
Obaze said that INEC and the ruling APC may be taking for granted Nigerians’ devotion to the rule of law and due process disposition in general, and the Obedient Movement in particular.
He cautioned that INEC and the APC would be courting catastrophe for “them to want to pour salt into an open wound inflicted on Nigeria’s electorate.”

The former United Nations diplomat reminded INEC that “what they are trying to do is tantamount to raising a dead horse and that whether reports were fake or real, the commission should know the level of public confidence in them has long been eroded.”
