    Ondo Guber INEC’s worst performance — PDP

    The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has described the just concluded Ondo State Governorship election as the worst performance of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), yet in the discharge of its responsibilities.

    National Publicity Secretary of the party, Hon. Debo Ologunagba, said this in a statement in Abuja, yesterday.

    INEC had earlier declared the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship candidate, Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, winner of the polls.

    Ologunagba said the PDP, “and indeed all lovers of democracy in Nigeria and across the world have just witnessed the worst election conducted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).”

    According to him, “The November 16, 2024 Governorship election in Ondo State runs short of all expectations and requirements of a free, fair and credible election as it witnessed the height of electoral swindle, deceit and manipulation by the All Progressives Congress (APC).

    “This election witnessed widespread election merchandising, monetization and barefaced vote buying by the APC and its apparatus in government to suppress the genuine aspiration of the people.

    “This devious practice by the APC was rampant and pervasive because the APC have utterly impoverished Nigerians and turned poverty into a weapon of mass subjugation which enabled it to manipulate the election and its outcome.

    “We call the attention of all Nigerians and the International Community to this reprehensible practice by the APC as widely witnessed in the November 16, 2024 Governorship election in Ondo State and we demand that a serious action be taken to stem such if Nigeria’s democracy must survive.

    “In the meantime, the National Working Committee (NWC) of the PDP will be having a more detailed review of the election and its outcome and take appropriate action in the defence of our Democracy.”
