•Moves to nullify 6m CPC votes •To prove underage voting, voter intimidation, rigging in his stronghold
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) moved swiftly to respond to claims of underhand occurrences in the last presidential election by raising four points which it believed would easily knock off the petition by the presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive change (CPC), General Muhammadu Buhari.
Buhari had on Friday filed a notice at the Presidential Election Tribunal, seeking access to election materials and seeking the nod of the tribunal to allow him bring forensic experts to analyse the votes.
Sources in the party and the Presidency, however, said on Saturday that the PDP had been busy assembling points and facts that would not only nullify Buhari’s claims, but also show that his over 12 million votes were garnered through untoward means.
