A group under the aegis, The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Integrity Vanguard, has urged all relevant security agencies  to bring to justice the All Progressives Congress, APC, and all those alleged to be behind plot to hack into the voters registration data base of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.

The group, in a statement, yesterday, said the Department of State Security Service and other security agencies must not leave any stone unturned to ensure that those behind the act were made to face the full wrath of the law.

The statement, signed by the Coordinator of PDP Integrity Vanguard and pioneer National Publicity Secretary of PDP, Senator Aniete Okon, described the action as most condemnable, a sophisticated digital rigging plan, a pre-meditated electoral fraud and akin to the activities of ‘yahoo-yahoo’ internet fraudsters.
