Though Rivers people are peace-loving, they will resist any attempt to rig the 2019 elections in the state.

INEC has different interpretations of judgments depending on where it is coming from.

When the court nullified the Rivers APC primaries, a lawyer of one of the factions wrote to INEC not to recognize any candidate because of the judgment. INEC wrote to APC notifying them of outcome of that judgment.

INEC merely said they were in receipt of the letter requesting that INEC should obey. In the case of PDP, INEC wrote to PDP in Ogun State, where Buruji dragged the party to court, telling them they will comply.

When there is a judgment against PDP, there is immediate enforcement. When it concerns APC, INEC says they are studying the judgment. In the case of Ogun State PDP, INEC quickly obeyed the judgment.

INEC should work as an unbiased umpire, ensuring that the Electoral Act is respected at all times and due process followed in the conduct of elections.

INEC has been involved in several under-the-table actions in Rivers State since 2015.

During the rerun elections, INEC connived with the Police to deny the people of Rivers East Senatorial District their rightful mandate.

INEC and security agencies should commit themselves working towards credible polls.

INEC and security agencies should sign a pact to respect the tenets of the Electoral Act.

The Peace Accord is a ceremony. It is a mere public display. The Peace Accord cannot work because they are not sincere.

INEC and Security should sign Peace Accord because they are ones who create circumstances for electoral violence. They try to manipulate the process against the will of the people.

Security agencies have played negative roles in over-heating the polity in Rivers State.
