The approved party sym bol of the 3rd Petitioner w hich w as w ell know n to its team ing supporters w as not reflected on the ballot papers w ith the result that a lot of eligible voters could not vote for the Petitioners. x. By contrast, the party sym bol of the 3rd Respondent w as properly and correctly reflected on the ballot paper thereby giving the 1st Respondent an undue advantage at the election. xi. The 4th Respondent did not publish the full list of validly nom inated candidates in the April 21, 2007 Presidential election as required by the Electoral Act, 2006. xii.

those from Benue South Senatorial District in Benue State, and num erous other states. xiv. Counting of votes w as not done at the polling units w here elections w ere held and no results w ere declared at the Polling U nits as prescribed by law . Instead, the 6th Respondent purported to have relied on results collated at state levels based on “scores TRANSMITTED ELECTRO NICALLY from the polling units and/or local governm ents across the nation.”
Notice is hereby given to the 4th – 42nd Respondents to produce before this Honourable Court all the used and unused ballot papers, Form s EC8A, EC8B, EC8C, EC8D, EC8D(A), EC8E, EC25 and EC40C used during the 21st April, 2007 Presidential Election. xv.

Your Petitioners w ill contend at the trial of this Petition that w ith the terrain and rem oteness of m any local governm ent areas and states of the federation, coupled w ith the fact that there w as need to sort out the m aterials for distribution, such election m aterials could not have been distributed and w ere not so distributed by the tim e fixed for the election. xx.

18. CORRUPT PRACTICES
The facts on w hich the ground of corrupt practices is based are:
(a) Your Petitioners aver that the election w as invalid by reason of w idespread corrupt practices com prising ballot stuffing, m ultiple voting, ballot boxes snatching, intim idation, over- voting, inflation of results, bribery, under supply of voting m aterials, threats, falsification, beatings, killings, by the 1st – 4th Respondents, their agents and officers. These corrupt practices occurred in virtually all the States of the Federation, Local Governm ent Areas, w ards, and polling stations, but featured m ore especially in the follow ing states:
ANAM BRA STATE
i. In Anam bra State election m aterials arrived late from Enugu w hich affected onw ard distribution to the 21 Local Governm ent Areas. In Aw ka North, Aw ka South, O nitsha North, Nnew i North Local Governm ent Areas, hijacked ballot papers w ere stuffed in ballot boxes even w hen there w as no actual voting, ballot boxes w ere snatched, to the extent that the 2nd Petitioner, Chief Edw in U m e Ezeoke, vice presidential candidate of All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) and the incum bent Governor of Anam bra State, could not vote w hereas results w ere declared by the 4th Respondent. Further:
i. In Nnew i South, O nitsha South, O nitsha North, Nnew i North, Ekw usigo, Njikoka, Anaocha Local Governm ent Areas, there w as absolutely no election. RT/A/1/LT/Election Petitions - 49 -
Election m aterials for the presidential and national assem bly elections w ere later found abandoned in the bush at Nnew i North and O nitsha South Local Governm ent Areas. ii. In Idem ili North Local Governm ent Area, there w as no exercise in all the w ards except O bosi w ard m ainly because election m aterials arrived late in the evening, and they w ere subsequently returned to the INEC office at O gidi. iii. In Idem ili South Local Governm ent Area, actual voting took place only in Aw ka-Etiti W ard I for just one hour. The other eleven (11) w ards, election m aterials arrived betw een 6.00pm and 8.00pm and they had to be returned to the INEC office at O joto. iv. In Aw ka South Local Governm ent Area, voting took place for only an hour in Nibo I & II, Nise II, and Am aw bia II & III, all the other rem aining 15 W ards did not hold any election due to late arrival of m aterials or absence of INEC officials. v. In Aw ka North Local Governm ent Area, m aterial w as distributed only to Mgbakw u W ard, Achalla I, II, and III. vi. In O rum ba North Local Governm ent Area, the m aterials left the Local Governm ent Secretariat at about 6.30pm ; none of the m aterials w as seen in any w ard or polling station. vii. In O gbaru Local Governm ent Area, there w as no election in the w hole of O kpoko Area com prising of 6 w ards. In the rest of the w ards, the election m aterials w ere returned to INEC office because of darkness. viii. In Dunukofia Local Governm ent Area, election w as held for about an hour, the electoral officer despite m y personal intervention refused to avail any party RT/A/1/LT/Election Petitions - 50 -
agent w ith the result as collated at the w ards, claim ing that he had only three (3) copies of the result sheet.
ix. In Ihiala Local Governm ent Area, the m aterials w ere dispatched from the local governm ent Secretariat at about 6.30pm ; none of the election m aterials w as sighted in any w ard, m uch less an election taking place.
x. In Aguata Local Governm ent Area, the exercise w as m arred by unbelievable height of irregularities, intim idation and non-com pliance w ith know n electoral rules and regulations. Labour Party for instance, w on w ith 90% votes for H ouse of Representative election w hile PDP purportedly ‘sw ept’ w ith landslide victory in the presidential and senate elections.
ADAM AW A STATE ii. In Adam aw a State particularly in Yola the Governor w as placed under house arrest and prevented from casting his vote; m ajority of eligible voters in Adam aw a North Senatorial District w ere prevented from voting, ballot papers w ere stuffed in ballot boxes, ballot boxes w ere snatched, election m aterials m eant for voting w ere abandoned in the bush, w ith several agents of the 1st – 4th Respondents arrested in connection w ith these offences. Card carrying m em bers of 3rd Respondent w ere recruited as ad-hoc staff of 4th respondent to conduct the election. Election m aterials w ere not delivered in the few local governm ent areas and or w ards before 1pm , w here it w as delivered at all. This deprived m ajority of eligible voters w ho turned out early, of the opportunity to vote, as they had to leave on sighting no electoral officers and m aterial. This pattern of m alpractice w as replicated in nearly all the local governm ent areas of the State as typified by Num an, Shelleng, Fufore, Mubi, Lam urde and Madegali Local Governm ent Areas. In Nasaraw a Yola North Local Governem nt Area w here voting m aterials arrived at RT/A/1/LT/Election Petitions - 51 -
about 1pm the voting w as stopped at 4pm , as against the 5pm officially perm itted.
Protest letters to the State Resident Electoral Com m issioner from the 3rd Petitioner’s officials in Adam aw a State shall be founded upon including letters dated 22/4/07 and 23/4/07.
BAUCHI STATE iii. In Bauchi State, especially in Bauchi North Senatorial District, the Presidential Election did not hold on Saturday, the 21st of April, 2007 but on Sunday, 22nd April, 2007. Ballot papers w ere stuffed in ballot boxes, ballot boxes snatched, w ith several agents of the 1st – 4th Respondents arrested in connection w ith these offences.
BAYELSA STATE iv. Election m aterials arrived very late in all the local governm ent headqutres. In som e cases they never arrived at all ow ing to the riverine and diffcicult terrain of the state. In all the lopcal governem tn areas of bayesla state w ithtout exception, election m aterial released to 4th respondent offcials did not include Result form s EC8As, EC8bs, and EC8Cs. As a result, som e supervisory presiding officers, afraid for their lives, sim ply disappeared from the local governm ent INEC offices w here they incom plete lection m aterial w ere delivered to them . They never show ed up at the w ard level to distribute the election m aterials to the officers w ho w ere to conduct the election at polling unit levels. As a result election never took place at all Bayelsa State. Nevertheless, results w ere allocated at the Local governm ent levels and transm itted to the Resident Electoral Com m issioner in Yenagoa w ho in turn announced victory for the 3rd Respondent in the presidential election. As a result the 3rd Petitioner’s party agents at w ard and poling unit levels found them selves lonely and idle at their duty posts as the 4th Respondent officers w ere now here to be found . RT/A/1/LT/Election Petitions - 52 -
This w as the experience in Kolokum o/Opolkum o, Ogbia, Southern Ijaw , Brass and Yenagoa Local G overnem nt Areas and the other others.
In the few cases w here election m aterials, but w ithout result form s , arrived, they w ere w ere so sm all they had to be rationed at the rate of 50 pieces of ballot papers per polling units, notw ithstanding that a polling unit has, on the average, about 500 registered voters.
BENUE STATE iv. In Benue State, the election m aterials w ere brought in late in m ost parts of the state, except Makurdi, the state capital. In few places in various local governm ent areas w here election took place at all, election m aterials w ere not distributed earlier than 3.00pm . Indeed, in Gw er Local Governm ent Area election did not hold at all but results w ere announced by the electoral officer after the election had been diverted to the house of the Local Governm ent Caretaker Chairm an w ho is a PDP stalw art.
There w ere ballot stuffing, violence and intim idation of the voters and the ballot papers w ere not serially num bered. Election m aterials w ere handed over to PDP stalw arts to m anipulate as suited their fancy. Retired m ilitary officers, w ho belonged to 3rd Respondent, used their connection in the arm y hierarchy to influence the security personnel deployed on the day of election to collude w ith 3rd Respondent in perpetrating rigging, intim idating and m aim ing opponents. A vivid exam ple w as that of one Chief Godw in Daboh Azuana, a PDP chieftain w ho patrolled the Vandekya Local Governm ent Area in a 12-seater bus protected by arm ed m obile policem en to snatch electoral m aterial m eant for the conduct of the election. Sim ilarly in Buruku Local Governm ent , a local governm ent caretaker chairm an, honourable Azor Chim egh diverted 23 ballot boxes out of 2y6 provided for Mbapen W ard to the Local Governm ent Secretariat, w here they w ere thum b printed and votes arbitrarily allocated to PDP as w inner. RT/A/1/LT/Election Petitions - 53 -
Form EC8As and EC8Bs w ere produced in tw o parallel copies in duplicates bearing the sam e serial num bers to generate parallel results one of w hich invariably is authenticated and relied upon sim ply because m ajority votes w ere allocated to the 3rd Respondent therein. As a result m ost agents opposition parties, to the PDP controlled governm ent in Benue State did not have copies of election results to audit and confirm their authenticity at various level of collation.
Typical exam ples of these duplicitous result form s are those from Benue South Senatorial District in Benue State; w hich w ere discovered to have been replicated in other states of the federation follow ing identical pattern.
CROSS RIVER STATE v. In Cross River State, the Presidential Election did not take place on Saturday, 21st April, 2007; in Cross River North Senatorial District, in fact, election w as conducted on Sunday the 22nd of April, 2007 because election m aterials w ere not flow n in w ith m ilitary aircraft until about 6.15pm on Saturday evening and this affected the follow ing local governm ents: O goja, Yala, Boki, Bekw ara, O banliku, and O budu that bestride tw o senatorial districts. During the conduct of the said election on Sunday, 22nd April, 2007, the agents and officers of the 3rd Respondent w ere given m aterials as presiding officers and supervisors. The Presidential Election w ere carried out by the 3rd Respondent’s personnel and resulted in m ost voters being disenfranchised. No notice of the arbitrary change of the date of election w as officially announced , and m ost voters never got know of m uch less see the election allegedly held on the follow ing day; instead voters w ent to attend their Sunday church services, w hich situation w as exploited by the agents of 3rd and 4th Respondent to concoct spurious election results at Local Governm ent levels in w hich m ajority of votes w ere allocated to the 1st Respondent.

RIVERS STATE xxii. There w as non delivery of election m aterials, in m ost of the local governm ent of areas except the state capital port H arcourt. In Port H arcourt the delivery of election m aterials w as abysm ally late and did not reach a substantial num ber of w ards until the official tim e for the close of election. The earliest sighting of election m aterials at polling units w ere recorded at about 1pm . Even then ballot papers w ere undersupplied thereby disenfranchising m ajority of eligible voters.
Even w here voting took place, the ballot boxes w ere snatched before close of polls and counting of ballots by PDP supporters aided by soldiers and arm ed policem en w ho w ere to provide security during the election. Som e PDP supporters w ere seen carrying arm s, alongside arm ed security personnel. Agents of 3rd Petitioners w ere prevented from observing the conduct of the elections; they w ere beaten up w here they insisted on their right. Incidents of this nature typified the conduct of the election in Tai, O yigbo, Port H arcourt, Akuku –Toru, O krika, Bonny, Degem a, Gokana, Asari-Toru, Angulam a and Elem e Local Governm ent Areas in the State.

The election m aterial supplied at w ards and local governm ent levels did not include result form s EC8As and EC8Bs on w hich scores w ere to be recorded and transm itted to Local Governm ent and State capital for further collation. As a result the opposition party agents at the state collation centre objected to the collation done by the State Resident Electoral com m issioner. They thus refused to sign the final result for state collation at the presidential election, on the basis that the results w ere product of vote allocation and not collation.
Most of these incidents of electoral m alpractices w ere captured on video and phone recordings and photographs w hich shall be founded upon.
ZAM FARA STATE
xxi. In Zam fara State, election m aterials w ere brought in late and as a result, no election w as held up to the tim e fixed for election w as over in virtually all the local governm ent areas w ith the exception of the state capital. As a result, m ajority of eligible voters w ere disenfranchised; and opposition party agents, particularly those of 3rd Petitioners, w ere deprived the opportunity to observe the conduct of the election. Nevertheless, the 4th Respondent upheld the election results from all the local governm ent areas in the state in w hich a m ajority of the votes allegedly cast w ere allocated to the 3rd Respondent, w hose loyalists constituted the bulk of the ad-hoc staff recruited to conduct the elections.
19. In all the acts of m alpractices and irregularities set out in the preceding paragraphs herein, the 811th – 1576th Respondents are just a few of INEC officials below the level of the Electoral O fficers w ho directly aided, participated in assisting the 4th – 808th Respondents in a carefully plotted schem e to foist the 1st Respondent on the Nigerian electorate in disregard of the santity of their franchise as guaranteed by the Electoral Act, 2006. The Presiding O fficers and Poll Clerks at polling unit level w ere practically pow erless to exercise their m andate given the collusion of law enforcem ent agencies in the m isconduct of the election and com prom ising RT/A/1/LT/Election Petitions - 66 -
integrity and security of election m aterials w here they w ere distributed at all at the local governm ent and w ard levels.
Evidence and Reports of Independent Election Observes and the m edia that covered the election w ith unrestricted access throughout the 36 states of Nigeria and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja are consistent w ith the facts of corrupt practices pleaded above in even greater details, and shall be founded upon at the trial.
20. Before and during the election, the 5th Respondent exhibited acts of gross bias w ith im punity against the person and candidature of the 1st Petitioner including:
a. publicly calling the 1st Petitioner a ‘frustrated politician’;
b. falsely describing the 3rd Petitioner as an illegal organization not having being registered by INEC;
c. after the Judgm ent in Suit No.: FH C/ABJ/CS/03/07 pleaded in 16 (iv) above, the 5th Respondent boasted that he w ill not com ply w ith the Judgm ent unless com pelled by the Suprem e Court;
d. in the course of processing the 1st Petitioner’s nom ination, the 5th Respondent falsely denied receipt of the 1st Petitioner’s photograph required to be placed on the ballot paper w hen in actual fact sam e had been duly delivered.
21. In addition to the specific instances of election m alpractices stated above, the 4th Respondent abruptly announced postponem ent of the National Assem bly election in several constituencies spanning 29 states of the federation on the day of the election, thereby m isleading eligible voters into believing that the Presidential Election w as equally postponed.
22. Your Petitioners state that the 1st Respondent did not score m ajority of law ful vote cast at the 21st April, 2007 Presidential Election by reasons of the facts pleaded in the preceding paragraphs of this Petition w hich are herein repeated. Evidence shall be led by the Petitioners to show that the results credited to the 1st and 2nd RT/A/1/LT/Election Petitions - 67 -
Respondents w ere collated from unlaw ful votes recorded from the polling units to the collation centers.
23. Your Petitioners aver that w hile election results from 25 states of the federation w ere still being aw aited the 5th Respondent excused him self and w ent out of the collation center at the H eadquarters of the 4th Respondent leaving behind the party agents and announced the result of the Presidential Elections, declaring the 1st Respondent the w inner and m aking pronouncem ents of victory for the 1st – 3rd Respondents as the Returning O fficer.
24. Your Petitioners state that results from 11 states then available w ere not enough to support the return of the 1st Respondent as the w inner of the election.
Your Petitioners w ill rely on the CD and video clips of the announcem ent m ade by the 5th Respondent and the detailed results of the Presidential Election, state by state and local governm ent by local governm ent at the trial of this Petition as m ay be obtained in the course of Court ordered inspection m ade on M onday, 14th April, 2007; w ritten, visual and audio reports of international and local observers especially NDI, IRI, EU, JDPC, and TM G .
