    Obasanjo claimed that INEC officials tampered with BVAS machines and manipulated election results in his letter dated February 27, 2023.

    Olusegun Obasanjo, a former president, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to void any election that fails a credibility and transparency test.

    In response to calls from the Labour Party (LP) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to call off the 2023 presidential election, the former president made this statement in a letter to Buhari.

    The agents of the two parties left after failing to convince the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to halt the collation and announcement of the election results at the National Collation Centre in Abuja.

    Taking on the problems,

    The letter reads:

    “Nigerian Brothers and Sisters, greetings to you all. I am constrained to speak at this point. I crave the indulgence of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency General Muhammadu Buhari, to make this statement because I have had opportunity to keep him aware of what I know is happening and the danger looming ahead,” the letter reads.

    “On many occasions in the past, I have not hesitated to point out lacuna in the action of the President and his government. But as far as the election issues are concerned, the President has proved beyond reasonable doubt that he will want to leave a legacy of free, fair, transparent and credible elections.

    “Until last Saturday night, February 25, 2023, the good and noble plan and preparation for the elections seemed to be going well. For the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), a lot of money was spent to introduce Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS), and the Server for immediate transmission of results from polling units.

    “It is no secret that INEC officials, at operational level, have been allegedly compromised to make what should have worked not to work and to revert to manual transmission of results which is manipulated and the results doctored.

    “The Chairman of INEC may claim ignorance but he cannot fold his hands and do nothing when he knows that election process has been corrupted and most of the results that are brought outside BVAS and Server are not true reflection of the will of Nigerians who have made their individual choice.
