PDP Agent Refuses To Sign The Presidential Election Result Sheet

Meanwhile after announcing the presidential election results, Prof. Jega called all party agents to come on stage at the collation center and sign the Presidential election sheet by INEC, and every agent did except the agent for PDP. 

He climbed the stage, spoke with Jega, shook his hands and walked away without signing the result sheet. PDP says it would be challenging the results of the 2015 Presidential election. Dr Bello Fadile, the PDP agent who refused to sign the result sheet when called up by INEC Chairman, Prof Jega, told journalists in Abuja this morning that his signing the result sheet was inconsequential as they will be heading to court 

"Whether I sign it (the result sheet) or I don’t sign it,  does not make any difference. It doesn't invalidate the result. When we go to court, then we can challenge the result,” he said.

Dr Bello spoke on the affirmative that the party would be heading to the tribunal

"Sure! The party petitioned. Don’t forget. So the party will follow through the petition. There are rules for this. The law is there. The result was declared on the 1st of April, I think. We will follow the due process. Like the president (Jonathan) said, ‘If you have any grievances, follow due process and the due process in this instance is to go to the tribunal.”he said
