“The result sheets have been filled and tampered with already, and people have refused to accredit, people have refused to vote and they are insisting that the plain result sheets must be returned to agents in accordance with the electoral law.”
Melaye added: “If they refuse to show you result sheets in all polling units across the state, don’t accredit, don’t vote, protest and resist it.
“This is democracy. We must protect our votes, and protect the process. We must make sure that all the regulations are being observed and respected.”
