The Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has requested that the Department of State Services (DSS) and the Nigeria Police immediately restrain Sen. Dino Melaye and Publisher of Ovation Magazine, Mr. Dele Momodu, for inciting violence.
APC PCC Special Adviser for Media and Communication, Mr. Dele Alake, made the announcement at a Press Conference, on Monday evening.
On his part, Pastor Paul Enenche of Dunamis Church, was accused of inciting violence from the pulpit, prompting the APC to demand that security agencies restrain him.
Sen. Melaye had attempted to disrupt proceedings at the INEC Collation Centre in Abuja, on Monday, after he alleged irregularities in the presidential election results for Ekiti State.
He had requested that the INEC chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, request the States Collection Officers to reconcile the numbers on the result sheets with those uploaded to the Commission’s website, but the chief electoral officer denied the request.
Dino Melaye, one of the PDP agents, later left the National Collation Center, accusing INEC of collaborating with APC’s efforts to rig the election.
