Electronic Voting is PDP’s idea to rig the 2023 election – Senator Ndume
A lawmaker representing Borno South Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Ali Ndume, has said that the issue of Electronic Voting is part of an idea hatched by the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP to rig the 2023 general elections.
Ndume’s comments are coming shortly after the National Assembly mostly the All Progressives Congress (APC) voted against the adoption of electronic transmission of votes.
Ndume said PDP have the yahoo-yahoo boys as their loyal, adding that they are the ones that have ‘puppy’. By this saying, the lawmaker is perceived to mean HushPuppi.
Politics Nigeria quoted Ndume saying: “This electronic voting they are talking about, I think it’s PDP’s idea to rig the election because they are the ones that have the Yahoo-Yahoo boys, they are the ones that have ‘puppy’.
“These are the people otherwise I don’t see any reason for the cry out on this matter”.
“The truth of the matter is that we had 6 elections in this country and the one that was administered under the government of APC was adjudged to be very credible where you saw opposition winning elections under a sitting government. That was not the case during the PDP”.
“If you are thinking is that APC is doing this to take advantage of it, we would have taken advantage of the previous elections that were conducted credibly”.
