Before his death, former Deputy Senate President, Ibrahim Mantu admitted that he helped the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rig elections in the past, IgbereTV recalls.
Mantu made the confession during an interview on on Channels Television’s programme, Hard Copy, in 2018.
He said he helped the party rig elections by bribing officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as well as security agents.
In his words;
“Let me tell you one thing, yes I did. I am now confessing the truth.
What do I need? I don’t have to go and change election… but you know, when you provide money, you give money to INEC boys to help you, if they see any chance, that they should favour you. You (also) provide money to the security.”
