The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to release the outstanding results from the Kuje area of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) election, saying delays are causing concern among voters. PDP officials called on INEC to ensure transparency and complete the collation of results from all polling units. They argued that releasing the remaining figures is crucial to reflect the full will of voters in Kuje.
According to the PDP, several polling units in Kuje still had results yet to be announced, and party representatives claimed the delay could undermine confidence in the process. The party demanded that INEC officials publicly account for the pending figures and complete the task quickly. Some party members warned that continued delays might raise questions about fairness, though they stopped short of accusing the commission of intentional bias.
INEC officials were being petitioned to address the concerns and provide updates on when the outstanding results would be shared. PDP leaders stressed that all results, including those from remote polling units, must be collated and published without further delay. They also asked for assurances that any technical or logistical issues causing the hold-up would be resolved.
Supporters of the PDP in the FCT voiced frustration over the slow pace of result announcements, saying they came out early to vote and deserve clarity. Some voters in Kuje expressed worry that their votes might not count if results were not released soon.
Others called for calm and urged INEC to communicate clearly with the public about the status of collation and publishing. Community members appealed to electoral officials to work swiftly to avoid misunderstandings and ensure peace.
Representatives of other political parties also monitored developments, watching closely as INEC handled the pending results. There was a shared call for fairness, with many insisting that the final outcome must reflect all votes cast.
As the situation unfolded, calls for clear updates and timely release of the Kuje results continued from both party officials and voters. The PDP maintained that completing the results will help strengthen trust in the electoral process in the FCT.
