    Reading from the document given by the People Democratic Party Counsel, the witness, Afangide states the results collated from Wards across the Local Government Area as given to him by the party agents clearly showed Senator  Akpabio had won the election in his own Local  Government Area with a wide margin.

    He expressed surprise at the register voters’ tendered in court saying it was different from the one used on Election Day.

    According to Afangide the elections in Essien Udim Local Government Area were peaceful as attested to by security agencies, local and foreign observers.

    Another Witness, Chris Akpan a Ward Collation Agent told the Tribunal the results declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission in Uyo did not reflect collated results from the Units and Wards of the Local Government Area.
