I have evidence ADC primary was rigged – Babachir Lawal insists

Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir Lawal, says he has evidence that the African Democratic Congress, ADC, primary election was rigged.

Featuring in an interview on ‘Politics Today’, a programme on Channels Television on Monday, Lawal said he was in the field and monitored the exercise.

He said whatever the supporters of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar said was not true, adding that a thief would not accept he is a thief.

“Don’t forget I was the National Vice Chairman (Northeast). I was in the field during the exercise, so I have evidence.

“Atiku’s people are the ones lying by trying to deny what they did. We are all human beings. We know what they did.

“I knew the primary was rigged at the point it was being done and the results being declared,” he said.
