Atiku Alleges Fraud In PDP Presidential Primary Election

PEOPLES Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential aspirant, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has through his campaign organization, petitioned the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on the outcome of the last presidential primary election of the party where President Goodluck Jonathan emerged the winner.

In the petition dated January 20 and signed by the Director-General of the campaign organisation Senator Ben Obi, the Atiku group said  before the actual conduct of the PDP presidential primary election on January 13, they had raised several alarms concerning alleged lack of openness and fairness in the process as well as the unwillingness of the leadership of the party to provide a level playing field to all aspirants.
