The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to immediately announce the outstanding results from two wards in Kuje Area Council.
The party warned that delays could undermine the credibility of the ongoing Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Area Council elections.
In a press statement issued on Sunday, February 22, 2026, and signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Comrade Ini Ememobong, the party expressed concern that results from Kuje Central and Kabi wards had yet to be declared despite claims that most of the figures had already been uploaded to INEC’s Result Viewing Portal (IREV).
“We are concerned that the results from two wards in Kuje Area Council are yet to be announced by @inecnigeria,” the statement read.
The PDP alleged that the delay had heightened fears among its supporters, particularly because of what it described as a narrow advantage recorded by the party in the affected areas.
“This delay has raised apprehension because of the marginal lead that the Peoples Democratic Party @OfficialPDPNig has there, which we are aware is under the threat of being manipulated using security forces,” the party stated.
The opposition party urged the INEC chairman to intervene urgently to ensure transparency in the collation process.
“We call on the Chairman of INEC to immediately order the announcement of the results in Kuje Central and Kabi Wards, most of which have been posted on the IREV,” the statement added.
Emphasising the need to protect electoral integrity, the PDP warned that any outcome that does not reflect voters’ choices would damage the legitimacy of the election.
“Election results must remain a true reflection of the votes of the people; anything less invalidates the entire process,” the party said, adding, “We should uphold the sanctity of the ballot.”
The development comes amid heightened political tension across the FCT following a series of chairmanship declarations that have so far favoured the All Progressives Congress (APC), which has secured victories in several area councils, namely Abaji, AMAC, Bwari and Kwali, while the PDP recorded a major win in Gwagwalada.
