The opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Osun State chapter, has released shocking evidence against the All Progressives Congress, APC, ahead of the July 8 election for Osun West Senatorial District.
While raising the alarm, the PDP State Chairman, Soji Adagunodo, told a Press Conference, that the APC was pressuring the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to rig the poll.
Tendering the evidence, the PDP said: “Our party is intact, and we are ready for this bye-election as scheduled. Those that stepped-down are fully with us, and we are carrying out the campaign together.
“APC has procured the service of notorious thugs from within and outside the State, to unleash violence in Ede North, Ede South, Egbedore, Irewole, Iwo, and Ayedaade Local Governments, on the day of the election.”
“The APC Election Strategy Committee, is conniving with certain elements in INEC, to recruit OYES cadets and other party sympathisers as Presiding Officers and Polling Clerks. Part of the plans is to provide fake NYSC uniforms, and distribute same to these elements, in order to make them carry out this nefarious plan.”
“We have credible information about the plans of the APC and the State Government, to arrange the kidnap and or arrest of leaders of the PDP in certain Local Governments, on the eve of the July 8 bye-election.”
Adagunodo also said that certain chieftains of APC, have compiled names of their party members and sympathisers, to be accredited by INEC as election observers and monitors, during the bye-election.
“You will recall, 181 of these same elements from Osun State, were arrested somewhere in Imo State, in 2013, while travelling as fake observers for the Anambra Governorship election”, the PDP Chairman stated.
Reacting to the allegations however, the Spokesperson of the APC in Osun State, Kunle Oyatomi, said the allegations by the PDP, are baseless.
According to Oyatomi: “Osun PDP is psychologically tormented. Those allegations are not true. They are baseless without foundation. APC does not need to rig any election. We urge the people of the State, to discontinuance the allegations.”
