We Reject N-Power Personnel As INEC Ad-Hoc Staff – Wike

Rivers State will not permit the use of N-power personnel as ad-hoc staff of the Independent National Election Commission, INEC, during the forthcoming 2019 general election, Governor Nyesom Wike has said.

The governor also tasked the people to vote for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar for his understanding of the economy and ability to create jobs.

The governor, who stated this at Omagwa during the PDP Campaign Rally in Ikwerre Local Government Area on Monday, said that the N-power list was concocted to favour all the All Progressives Congress, APC with a view to rigging the 2019 general election.

He said: “I hear INEC wants to use N-power personnel as ad-hoc staff for the elections. This is a ploy to rig the elections. N-power personnel will not be allowed to serve as INEC ad-hoc staff in Rivers State. If you bring them, we will chase them away.”

Wike said all Nigerians should share in the blame of allowing a man without knowledge of the economy to emerge as President of the country.

“The mass unemployment across the country is due to the emergence of Buhari. All Nigerians should share in the blame for their suffering. We took our future and mandate and handed over to people who don’t understand job creation,” he said.

Speaking also, Atiku said “All his life, Atiku Abubakar has been involved in job creation. He is one of the highest employers of labour in Nigeria.”
