In a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, the party said the top officials whom INEC plans to send to oversee the election are card-carrying members of the PDP, which has compromised their role as unbiased umpires.

It named the Commissioners as Lawrence Nwuruku, the National Commissioner of INEC in charge of the South-East, and Gladys Nwafor, the second INEC Commissioner from the South-East.

”Nwuruku was the Chairman of the PDP in Ebonyi State, while Nwafor had worked closely with First Lady Patience Jonathan as a grassroots mobilizer. These officials cannot, in all honesty, be expected to be unbiased, because they have been compromised by their antecedents.

”If INEC indeed has any hope of organizing a free, fair and transparent election in Anambra on Nov. 16th, it must immediately shelve the plan to send these highly-partisan and heavily-compromised officials to supervise the election. Any action short of that will open INEC to accusations of bias – which is not what any
umpire wants,” APC said.
