A stalwart of the party in Kanam, Prof. Salleh Kanam rejected the outcome of the election while addressing newsmen on Thursday in Dengi. He particularly said that the election in Kanam was marred by irregularities.
Kanam, a former Chairman of the locality noted that from 95 per cent of results collated by the party’s agents, the APC won in 14 out of the 20 wards with a wide margin in LGA.
Salleh, who alleged that electoral officials disappeared with results sheets, called on the Plateau Independent Electoral Commission (PLASIEC) to properly collate the results of the polls.
