Rotimi Amaechi, the presidential running mate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), warns that some politicians try to steal INEC result sheets at the unit level during elections. Speaking to youths, Amaechi says politicians remove or interfere with result sheets after voting concludes and during counting, which he argues puts ad-hoc personnel working for the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) at risk. He urges voters and eligible participants to insist that result sheets are shown and properly processed at polling units, and that counting outcomes are completed before any documents are handled further. Amaechi also calls on Nigerians to ensure their votes are counted at polling units by demanding accountability from election officials and emphasizing that uploads and documentation should reflect the counted results. He further suggests that public pressure on INEC processes can deter rigging, stating that his party can mobilize large numbers of people to INEC offices if irregularities occur. The warnings are framed as part of preventing electoral malpractice and protecting the safety of INEC ad-hoc staff during election days.

The presidential running mate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Rotimi Amaechi, has accused politicians of stealing result sheets at unit level during polls. Amaechi warned that politicians steal result sheets at the risk of the lives of ad-hoc staff of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC. Addressing a group of youths, the former Rivers State governor said: “On the day of election in your Ward and in your Unit, you finish voting, you stand for the counting. I have been a politician all my life, I have never worked anywhere before. “I left university in 1987 and joined politics that same year, so you won’t teach me, unit level is where they vote. “Politicians steal result sheets at the unit level risking the life of the INEC adhoc officer. As he comes, show us the result sheet or you are not going because politicians don’t care about your life, some parents must stop their children who want to be adhoc staff.” He charged Nigerians to always insist on their votes being counted at the polling units during elections. He added: “If there is a result sheet, we will queue up and when they finish counting, if you don’t upload it you are not going “If we finish the election and there are one million persons in front of INEC and trust me if you do all these, ADC can mobilize one million people to INEC office. “Don’t forget that there is an election that would have been rigged in Nigeria, the election that made Kwankwaso governor, how many of you remember that, when they looked outside and saw 500 persons what did they do, they announced.” Watch here:
