APC plans to announce fake election result – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation alleged on Friday that the All Progressives Congress was planning to announce fake presidential election results after the poll next week on Radio Chanji.

The Director of Media and Publicity of the campaign organisation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, who made the allegation at a news conference in Abuja, said available facts before the Federal Government indicated that the APC had a strong link with the broadcasting station.

Fani-Kayode further alleged that the APC would use the radio station being operated from outside Nigeria, to spread dangerous propaganda to cause chaos after the presidential poll next Saturday.

He said, “We believe that we have been vindicated on our report just two days ago about the existence of Radio Chanji. This is despite the denials and the lies by the APC about the true situation of things and about their dastardly intentions and sinister plots to use the station for nefarious purposes.”

He also claimed that the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation had confirmed that the radio station existed and, that it was possible that its operations, which had been going on for some time, are being conducted from outside the country.

He said the latest revelation by the NBC was of great concern to the ruling party.

He said, “Once again, we wish to point out the dangers of this radio station and the evil intention of the people behind it. “Apart from anything else, they wish to use the station to announce false results after the up-coming elections are conducted.”

But APC denied ownership of the broadcasting station.

The party said the station existed in the PDP’s imagination.

The APC National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, who spoke with Saturday PUNCH on the telephone on Friday, said, “As for Radio Chanji, it exists only in the imagination of the PDP. We even strongly suspect that they were the ones that set up that radio station because our party knows nothing about Radio Chanji.

“They have been the ones talking about it so clearly; they know more about it than we do so Nigerians should hold them responsible for whatever comes out of it.”
