Enugu Rerun Election ‘A Sham’ – LP

The National Secretary of the Labour Party, Mr Umar Farouk, has described Saturday’s House of Representatives re-run election in Igbo-Eze North/Udenu Federal Constituency of Enugu State “as a sham”. Farouk called for a total cancellation of the exercise.

Umar, who led a Labour Party monitoring team to polling stations involved in the bye-elections, told journalists that “due process has not been followed, accreditation has been compromised, result sheets have been hijacked, BIVAS machines disregarded and voters not allowed to exercise their right to vote”.
