A member of the House of Representatives, Chidi Wihioka, has alleged hacking of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)’s database in Rivers State.
The lawmaker, representing Emohua/Ikwerre Federal Constituency, said the act would disenfranchise voters in the state.
Wihioka stated this yesterday at the All Progressives Congress (APC)’s stakeholders extraordinary meeting in Port Harcourt, the state capital.
According to him, the names of many members of the party whom INEC issued their Permanent Voter’s Cards (PVCs) to participate in the 2015 general elections and the 2016 legislative rerun, have been expunged from the database.
