The Presidential Campaign Council of the APC has said it is illogical for the PDP to reject results of the presidential poll that are still being collated.
The council in a statement by its spokesperson, Festus Keyamo (SAN), expressed surprise at Secondus’ statement rejecting the results as being announced presently by INEC in Abuja.
The statement read, “How come the PDP is rejecting results that have not been fully and completely announced? How can one reject the result of an uncompleted game? The process of an election does not end until the final collation and announcement of results.
“Is the PDP rejecting the totality of the results nationwide? If yes, does it mean they also reject the results that would be announced later by INEC which may indicate that they have won in certain areas? Are they also rejecting the results already announced that indicate they won in some areas? For instance, are they rejecting the results of the FCT already announced in which they won?
“If indeed they are only rejecting areas where they lost, are they implying that it is only in areas where they won that can be adjudged free and fair and all areas where they lost must be adjudged rigged? Is that the mentality of true democrats?”
Keyamo said it was curious that the PDP rejected the results as being announced, yet claimed they were coasting to victory.
“What kind of logic is that? What kind of confusion is now reigning in the minds of the top hierarchy of the PDP that they can spew such illogicality?
“It is now obvious that the top hierarchy of the PDP is hysterical and nervous. We urge them to calm down. Obviously, this is the first time they are sensing a massive loss of an election as opposition party. It is a new experience for them. They are confused and disoriented.
The council urged INEC, Nigerians and our international friends not to be swayed by the “infantile” antics of the PDP.
