Counting – Evidence

“Falsification of results on the other hand is usually effected by the returning officer and his deputy, since they receive and collate results sent from the polling stations. In the Ondo state gubernatorial election, the NPN candidate Chief Akin Omoboriowo was declared elected by the Electoral Commission with 1,228,891 votes as against 1,015,385 votes credited to Chief Michael Ajasin the UPN candidate. The court found that from evidence of the polling and party agents and certification of results signed by assistant returning officers, that Chief Michael Ajasin actually had 1,563,327 votes and Chief Omoboriowo 703,592. Chief Omoboriowo’s score was inflated by 525,389 votes, while Chief Michael Ajasin’s score was decreased by 547,942 votes. The falsification was done at the level of the deputy returning officer.”
