He added, they made a determination that the army got involved in the electoral process but whether their involvement in the process was to rig the elections, and that he is2 not in a position to make a determination on that
The INEC boss said there would be a meeting with all stakeholders including traditional and religious leaders with a view to ensuring that the electoral process in Rivers State will be peaceful.
