The Buhari Media organization (BMO) has expressed concern over silence by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) by the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to have had access to servers saying the long silence was worrisome and frightening.
Chairman and secretary of the group, Niyi Akinsiju and Cassidy Madueke, respectively said in a statement that the claim by the PDP that it had gained illegal access to the servers of INEC through the assistance of some INEC officials was too grave a criminal confession for the Commission to keep mum, as if it had consented to such a notorious allegation of breach.
The group said “This frightening. That INEC is not alarmed or bothered by such by the PDP to have procured the hacking of its systems – is false or not- is most worrisome.
We would have expected INEC into clearing the air immediately and distancing itself from such conduct. But INEC has kept a deafening silence.
“ on this confession of criminality against it is not golden. suspicious and carries a weight of taint that must be called out.
“It can be likened to a scenario where a thief says he has robbed a bank and the bank remains silent on the confession of robbery against it, whether its safes and moneys are intact or not. Silence is very weighty in any such instance”.
BMO said that it knew that the the PDP that it was in possession of results fraudulently the INEC servers was “a hoax and only an exhibition of the character of the PDP.
For instance, according to the group, the so-called results did not tally with reality, with such as the absence of votes of other political parties during the election. Still, we believe that INEC ought be silent in the face of such wild allegations.
“The of the PDP is one of fraud, dishonesty and malfeasance; it out of its character to have made moves to procure the hacking INEC servers by some of the Commission’s staff. Its Freudian slip admission of the stupid attempt, however unsuccessful, must with and addressed with all sense of seriousness. INEC has failed to do.”
The group said that the recent claim by the PDP to have colluded with INEC staff to have access to INEC’s back-end servers raises serious posers as to an unholy romance between INEC and the PDP
