The states are Bauchi, Benue, Kano, Sokoto, Adamawa and Plateau.

The governorship and House of Assembly elections in Rivers State were suspended due to violence.

However, INEC later said it would allow the collation of results in contentious Tafawa Balewa Local Government Areaof Bauchi State instead of conducting a fresh election.

It also said it would resume collation of results in Rivers State.

But the APC on Sunday said INEC was ignoring the reality on the ground.

It accused the INEC’s National Commissioner in charge of Information, Festus Okoye, and the Resident Electoral Commissioner in Rivers State, Obo Effanga, of conniving with the Peoples Democratic Party to skew election results against the APC.

In a statement, the APC National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, complained that the electoral process was suspended in Rivers State in fraudulent circumstances.

The statement partly read,

“It is on record that Wike, through the Rivers State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Obo Effanga, engaged the PDP card-carrying members as local government area collation officers to skew the election results in favour of Wike and the PDP.

“Since the suspension of the electoral process in Rivers State, Governor Nyesom Wike and Obo Effanga have been doctoring unit results in the Rivers State Government House to favour Wike.”
