However, the YPP party agent, Mr kelvin Umoh rejected the results, alleging widespread violence and intimidation that led to the killing of his party supporters.

Umoh said ” It will be wrong for me to append my signature to the results sheets because there was widespread violence and intimidation”

The People’s Democratic party agent, Engr. Uwem Okoko while commending INEC for the improvement witnessed in the Saturday polls, also thanked Akwa Ibom People for voting for PDP in the state
