Senator representing Abia North district, Sen. Orji Uzor Kalu has insisted that this party will reject results that do not reflect the people’s will in the upcoming local government election.
The Senate Chief Whip and former Abia governor told ABN TV on Friday that times are gone when local government election results are written even before the actual contest.
He called on the Prof. Mkpa Agu Mkpa-led Abia State Independent Electoral Commission (ABSIEC) to avoid being used to truncate the will of the people.
He called on the candidates who by their nomination assume they have been elected to have a rethink, adding that there must be a proper contest.
The lawmaker maintains that his party, the APC, and Abians will authenticate documents used for the election.

He called on ABSIEC to take a cue from INEC in line with visions of President Muhammadu for Edo, Ondo, and other elections across the country and be fair.
According to the former governor, the principle of fairness and credibility must be observed, saying anyone who wins should be announced the winner.
