#NigerianElections2023: Collation Of Results At Rivers State Suspended Over Threats On INEC Officer’s Life

The collation officer appointed by the Independent National Electoral Commission for the Presidential election in Nigeria’s Rivers State, Prof Charles Adias, has suspended the collation of results over alleged threats to life.

Prof Adias who is also the Vice Chancellor of the Federal University, Otuoke in Bayelsa State, said this at the resumption of collation at the INEC headquarters in Port Harcourt on Tuesday morning, saying the threats were from supporters of a particular political party.

He stated, “I have been receiving threats, messages and calls to my life and that of my family for two days now. My picture is all over the social media that I was sent to rig the elections in Rivers State.

“Every hour, I receive more than one million calls of threats to my life and other things. I hereby stand down collation until the INEC and security agencies can guarantee my safety to continue this national assignment.”
