The suspended Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) for Adamawa State, Hudu Yunusa Ari, has thrown light into what led to his declaring the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Aishatu Dahiru Binani as the winner of the governorship election in the state.
According to Ari, a lawyer, he announced results of 69 polling units in the April 15 supplementary election due to security pressure.
The suspended REC stated this in a letter to the Inspector General of Police explaining his part in the controversial April 16 announcement of Binani as winner ahead of Governor Ahmadu Fintiri of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
