The Independent National Electoral Commission has dismissed allegations that fake result sheets were in circulation in Akuku-Toru, Tai and Bonny local government areas for the rerun elections in Rivers State.
Rivers State Government had in a statement yesterday alleged there were reports of widespread distribution of fake result sheets to Khana, Bony, Andoni and other local government areas.
“We have seen so far a completely messy logistical nightmare, as voters seem unable to differentiate between fake and real INEC documents,” Commissioner for Information and Communication, Austin Tam-George, said in the statement.
But, INEC shortly after, said: “The allegations are untrue and they should be discountenanced.”
The electoral commission advised voters to go out and exercise their franchise peacefully.
