Yeakeh Sayequee<\/a>, a former Representative candidate in the 2023 Presidential and Legislative Elections, particularly in Montserrado district#10, has been accused of double-dipping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, he registered and voted in District #10<\/a>, according to an official report from the NEC, the country\u2019s electoral body.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By law, Yeakeh is not eligible to vote in the Nimba by-election since NEC captured him as a resident of Montserrado dist#10 during the 2023 elections. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Findings <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To verify the claim above, DUBAWA contacted the claimant for a photo or video evidence of Yeakeh voting in Bunadin, but the claimant did not provide an answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The claimant also did not mention which specific station in Nimba the voting took place, so the fact-checkers could not independently verify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
