Ex-deputy senate president, Ibrahim Mantu, has confessed to assisting
the People Democratic Pary(PDP) in rigging elections in the past.
Mantu revealed this during an interview he had on Channels Television.
When he was asked to elaborate his confession, he said he offered bribe to INEC officials and security agents during elections.
“Let me tell you one thing, yes I did. I am now confessing the truth. I don’t have to go and change election (results) but when you provide money, you give money to INEC boys that if they see any chance they should favour you, you provide money to the security personnel. I tell you it’s not necessarily when I am contesting election but when my party sponsors a candidate, I will like that candidate to win” he said
