The Labour Party Candidate for Abia South Senatorial District in the just-concluded February 25 National Assembly elections, Chinedu Onyeizu, on Monday, demanded INEC conducts rerun elections in over 100 polling units in the district.
Onyeizu, who spoke in a Channels Television’s programme Sunrise Daily on Monday, accused the returning officer for the election, Prof Georgina Ugwuanyi, of declaring the incumbent Senator for the district, Enyinnaya Abaribe, as the winner of the poll after receiving instructions from Abuja.
Onyeizu also alleged that more than 40,000 registered voters were disenfranchised in places where he should have won, adding the declaration was after the returning officer had declared the election inconclusive.
