The All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party have expressed different opinion on  Saturday  governorship election  in Anambra State.

While the APC demanded a total cancellation of the entire election based on alleged massive disenfranchisement of  voters, the PDP  said  the APC wanted to rig the election with thugs.

 The        APC, in   a statement    by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed,  said the disenfranchisement of  voters was caused by  blatant incompetent and/or deliberate sabotage of the electoral process by the Independent National Electoral Commission.

It said its call for the   cancellation of the poll  superseded  its earlier demand  for a rerun in four local government areas,and was based on the report it received from its agents as well as    local and foreign observers  in the state.

The party alleged that INEC, inexplicably used a voter’ register that was totally different from what it gave to political parties ahead of the election.

The statement reads in part, ‘’We discovered that INEC has set up a multi-layer arrangement to ensure that most voters in the state were disenfranchised, apparently acting out a script to manipulate the result of the election in favour of a certain candidate. Where voting materials were supplied, the commission provided wrong voters’ register.”

But the PDP  commended President Goodluck Jonathan for  providing adequate security and the enabling environment for  a credible, free and fair election in the state in spite of any perceived hitch(es).
