Video of Orubebe disrupting proceedings at INEC collation centre

PDP publicity secretary, Olisa Metuh spoke to Channels TV on the outburst of their party agent Elder Godsday Orubebe at the collation center this morning. What he told Chanels TV below
"In a democratic process, we must follow democratic channels. Yesterday we questioned the opposition party about certain things they had done to challenge states. We expect our members to follow the same process as well. This party has a tradition of decency and will follow democratic channels to lay complaints. Ours is to protest and make our voices heard through recognized channels and wait for democratic process to be followed. We directed our members that everyone should conduct himself within democratic norms and principles. That is all we have to say about that." he said
For those who missed it, here's the video of former Minister of Niger Delta Affairs and PDP party agent Godsday Orubebe attempting to disrupt the announcement of the presidential election results at the collation centre in Abuja this morning as it was about to start. (Read previous story here). He was shouting abusive words at INEC chairman, Prof. Jega. Called him tribalistic, partial, selective and that he has been compromised. His conduct was shameful to say the least.

The agent of the Peoples Democratic Party at the announcement of the presidential election in Abuja, Mr. Godsday Orubebe, is currently disrupting the continuation of the presentation of the results.
Shouting on top of his voice, Orubebe, a former Minister of the Niger Delta Affairs, alleged that INEC Chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega, had taken side with the All Progressives Congress.
At the venue of the results presentation on Tuesday, the PDP agent shouted, “You sent a committee to Rivers to probe what happened there. We submitted petitions to you about Kano, Jigawa, Katsina but you have not done anything about our complaints. You cannot continue with these results; we will not take it.”
As Jega tried to calm him down asking to be given a chance to respond, Orubebe shouted, “Mr. Jega, You cannot continue, go to your office.”
