The Senator-elect for Edo South, Neda Imasuen, has alleged plans by opposition parties to pressure the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to truncate his election and those of the House of Representatives in the just concluded election in Edo State.

Speaking in a “thank you” message through his campaign, the Barr. Neda Imasuen For Senate Campaign Organisation, the campaign organisation commended the good people of Edo South Senatorial District for their massive turnout and support for the Labour Party candidates.

The statement said: “Labour Party will not take your mandate for granted. We are aware of your decisions to have a better Edo State which tallies with our promises to you during our campaign tours of places and communities.

“Your show of resilience, determination, commitment and love for us as expressed during the election was unprecedented in the annals of elections in the state, as such we say thank you.

“The campaign organisation is also worried over the move of the opposition to cause INEC to cancel some units where they were massively defeated.

“This move is designed to also pressure INEC to declare the already concluded election, duly collated and announced results invalid.

“This action is condemnable and will be resisted by the people. We appeal to the good People of Edo South Senatorial District to celebrate their success and go about their normal business peacefully.”
