OPC has denied the allegation that it intends to rig the April 11 gubernatorial and House of Assembly elections in Lagos state.
OPC described the statement credited to the All Progressives Congress’ National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, as “blatant falsehood”. “There is no iota of truth in the statement.
