The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has again demanded the removal of the Resident Electoral Commissioner, REC, in Ondo State ahead of the forthcoming off-cycle November 16 governorship election in the state.
While flagging off its campaign in Akure, the state capital on Tuesday, the party disclosed that the REC has ties with the state, hence her tendency to be biased.
Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, who is the leader of the party in the southwest, Seyi Makinde urged the National Chairman of INEC not to allow Babalola to superintend over the election.
While appealing to the prospective electorate not to trade their votes, stressing that PDP states had proven to be better than APC-controlled states in terms of governance.
“Don’t trade your votes. We can now all see where vote buying has led us. You can see all the good things that are happening in Oyo, Osun, and all other PDP states in Nigeria. This is the beginning of the victory party for the PDP in Ondo State.
On his part, the Governor of Osun State and Chairman of the National Campaign Council, Senator Ademola Adeleke, who described the governorship candidate of the party as the best choice for the people, said, “Agboola is a tested hand. Anyone with God will never be put to shame. I bring you good news from Osun State.”
