APC Decries Akwa Ibom INEC REC Mike Igini's Unending Partisanship

ALL  PROGRESIVE   CONGRESS, APC 149, Ikot Ekpene Road , Uyo Akwa  Ibom  State.  PRESS STATEMENT What are the forces controlling Mike Igini ? Whoever had any iota of doubt about the weak character, bad conduct and poor judgement of Michael Igini, the INEC REC in Akwa Ibom State, only needs to read his latest outburst against the APC to clear such reservations.  Mr. Igini addressed a press conference in his office last Friday, and claimed that the APC candidates in the last general elections are challenging the results of the elections at the Tribunals because they want to ‘make noise, attract sympathy and look for appointments from President Buhari’.  Even those that had benefitted from Mike Igini’s electoral scam have been embarrassed by this reckless, partisan, insulting and gratuitous statement.  There is no other REC, among the 37 of them in the country – and we know that there are election cases in almost every state of the federation - that is
