Allegation of electoral fraud levelled against Ekiti state Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi by former Chairman of All Progressive Congress, (APC), Adams Oshiomole, has continued to generate mixed reactions.
Fayemi has denounced the allegation, describing Oshiomole as someone “still experiencing a post traumatic stress disorder on account of his removal as Chairman of APC.”
But the South West People’s Democratic Party (PDP), said the trending video footage has further exposed how the ruling APC has been manipulating election processes in the country.
The opposition party in a press statement by Chief Sanya Atofarati, the PDP Zonal Publicity Secretary, said the former Edo State Governor was not saying anything new but only confirming the APC falling house of fraud.
“The revelation by Oshiomhole should not come to anyone as a surprise but a confirmation that the APC is a party founded on fraud whose purported past electoral victories have been questionable.
“We have seen the electoral abracadabra perpetrated in Osun against PDP in 2018 and the insidious role played by Fayemi to rig PDP candidate out of his hard won victory after he had fraudulently laid seige using federal might to ‘reclaim’ Ekiti from PDP.
“Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the PDP candidate only yesterday, reminded Nigerians of how he was robbed of Presidency through the APC rigging machine in 2019.
“These are not mere hear- say but empirical facts that the PDP clearly won in 2019.
“Oshiomole was only stating the obvious the same way another APC Governor recently accused his fellow governors of being Yahoo-yahoo Governors.
“The PDP and other concerned Nigerians would continue to watch in amusement the tragic-comedy and the flip flops of the APC until they were swept away by the broom in 2023 even as more revelations would be made known to the public in days to come.”
