Why I Rejected Nasarawa PDP Guber Primary Results’ Former minister of information, Mr Labaran Maku, has rejected the result of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) gubernatorial primary in Nasarawa State. In a press statement signed by the director of Publicity, Yusuf Zakari Ukpo-Edegomade, made available to LEADERSHIP yesterday in Abuja, Maku Campaign Organisation said that having reviewed the PDP gubernatorial primary election held on 8th December, 2014 in Nasarawa, headquarters of Nasarawa local government of Nasarawa State, it has decided to reject the said primary in totality. It said that its rejection of the results is based on the following grounds: “The attention of the Nasarawa State PDP Gubernatorial Primary Election Panel led by Distinguished Senator Adolphus Wabara was drawn to the issue of the delegates list that was changed in the following local government areas: Keana, Obi, Lafia, Akwanga and Nasarawa Eggon. “The entire process of the election was full of frustration due to sudden change of venue without prior notice. “That the delegates were not accredited, as a result, the actual number of delegates was not certain. “The election panel chairman announced a total of 1100 voters’ cards to be used for the elections as against the total of 601 delegates for the gubernatorial primary thereby giving room for manipulation of the electoral process. “That most of the delegates were intimidated to vote for a particular aspirant against their wish.”
