Timi Frank, a former All Progressives Congress (APC) deputy national publicity secretary, has advised Nigerians not to hold legitimate elections in 2027.
Frank stated that the reported election fraud in the recently finished polls in the states of Kogi and Imo demonstrates that future polling efforts cannot provide results that can be believed.
In a statement released on Tuesday, he pointed out that voting manipulation was also carried out by security services employed to keep voters safe and apprehend those who were tampering.
It was emphasised by Frank that the APC now has a security section that includes the police and other agencies.
“The election has nothing to write home about, and to imagine that it was the first set of elections conducted under the watch of President Tinubu. What happened in Imo and Kogi is a clear indication of the kind of elections Nigerians will witness in 2027.
He said, “Our electoral system is presently in dire straits under our highly compromised Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), which has now graduated from rigging by manipulating the INEC Result View (IreV) portal and the Bi-Modal Voter Accreditation System (BIVAS) to writing results of polling units before the people cast their ballot.“
Frank claimed that the judiciary, which he stated had evolved into the APC’s legal division, would legitimise whatever actions taken by the INEC.
