Chief executive officer of TAF Africa, Jake Epelle, has described the Rivers State local government elections held on August 30 as a democratic scam, warning that they risk plunging the state into a constitutional crisis, although report from news men states that the All Progressives Congress emerged victorious in 20 out of the 23 LGAs, while the Peoples Democratic Party won in three.
While speaking with news men today, Epelle alleged the exercise was illegal, accusing authorities of political maneuvering that betrayed the electorate, further stating that the figures did not accurately represent what actually occurred during the exercise.
Epelle also warned that the elections were a looming constitutional crisis in the state as they would be challenged in court.
