The Independent National Electoral Commission, or INEC, is accused of defrauding the Peoples Democratic Party, or PDP, during the general elections of 2023.
In response to the Nasarawa State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal’s decision to remove the incumbent governor, the party made this statement on Monday.
According to an earlier report by Anaedoonline.ng, the tribunal declared Governor Abdullahi Sule’s victory in the elections held on March 18 invalid.

The election was won by Emmanuel Ombudagu of the PDP, according to the three-person panel chaired by Justice Ezekiel Ajayi, who gave the verdict through zoom.
In response, PDP claimed that the party’s mandates were stolen during the general elections at the federal and state levels in a post on its official X handle.
The party congratulated Ombudagu, saying his victory was the will of the people of Nasarawa State.
The post reads, “The Governorship Candidate of our great party, the @OfficialPDPNig, @davidombugadu23, has been declared as the winner of the March 18, 2023 Gubernatorial Election in Nasarawa State by the Election Petition Tribunal.
“This victory and the jubilations that greeted the declaration by the people of the state is a testament that the PDP and its Candidate were cheated by the electoral umpire and the ruling @OfficialAPCNg.
